I’m a retired Marine LtCol and Democrat running for Congress in Virginia's 2nd District because I swore to defend this country. We need a new mission in Congress: one that puts people over profits. Help us retake this critical district now by clicking the video to donate.

Hey, @SiliconCanals - your "enter your email to read this article" is a SHIT system, because it asks every time, whether you'rve pre-registered or not. Who creates a media site that puts up such an annoying barrier?!.

LLMs are getting better, faster, and smarter, and as they do, we need new ways to use them. Applications build with LLMs have transitioned from asking LLMs to write to letting LLMs drive actions. With that, comes new challenges in developing agentic applications.

In an act of slight obsession, I went down a research rabbithole and put together this 2,000-word profile of the PM's new AI adviser, Jade Leung. I spoke to people who've worked with her, building up a picture of a superstar high-performer with a commitment to AI safety.

Solar, wind, gas, all use a lot less water than coal power + industrial water recycling. The question is, what effect with the explosion in AI data centres have? Will it be fractional growth or more than that?.

This is surprising:. Over the most recent decade of data, the US has started using less and less water each year.

Just as Trump comes to Putin’s rescue with talk of peace, Ukraine is winning the war. The Russian gasoline supply chain is collapsing under drone attacks. Soon the spiralling cost of gas will affect those who don’t even have a car, such as the women below who talk of “going to.
