Businesses and households served by the largest U.S. power grid will spend a record $16.1 billion to ensure electricity supplies—a result that prompted immediate calls from utilities and energy groups to build more generation amid the AI frenzy.Businesses and households served by the largest U.S. power grid will spend a record $16.1 billion to ensure electricity supplies—a result that prompted immediate calls from utilities and energy groups to build more generation amid the AI frenzy.Energy & Green Tech[#item_full_content]
As artificial intelligence technology becomes part of daily life, adolescents are turning to chatbots for advice, guidance and conversation. The appeal is clear: Chatbots are patient, never judgmental, supportive and always available.As artificial intelligence technology becomes part of daily life, adolescents are turning to chatbots for advice, guidance and conversation.

The tech world says generative artificial intelligence is essential for the future of work and learning. But as an educator, I still wonder: Is it really worth bringing it into the classroom? Will these tools truly help students learn, or create new challenges we haven’t yet faced?The tech world says generative artificial intelligence is essential for the future of work and learning.

Artificial intelligence may take over some tasks and transform others, but one thing is certain: it’s reshaping the job market. Researchers at USC’s Information Sciences Institute (ISI) analyzed LinkedIn job postings and AI-related patent filings to measure which jobs are most exposed, and where those changes are happening first.Artificial intelligence may take over some tasks and transform others, but one thing is certain: it’s reshaping the job market.

AI image generation—which relies on neural networks to create new images from a variety of inputs, including text prompts—is projected to become a billion-dollar industry by the end of this decade. Even with today’s technology, if you wanted to make a fanciful picture of, say, a friend planting a flag on Mars or heedlessly flying into a black hole, it could take less than a second.AI image generation—which relies on neural networks to create new images from a variety of inputs, including text prompts—is projected to become a billion-dollar industry by the end of this decade.
