South Korea's power demand set to soar on AI boom

The Japan Times

South Korea's power demand set to soar on AI boom South Korean Minister of Climate, Energy and Environment Kim Sung-whan checks data of the Han River Flood Control Office's flood forecasting system in Seoul on Sept. 2. | REUTERS SEOUL - South Korea's demand for power in the coming years is set to surge on plans by chipmakers Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix to expand production and the building of new artificial intelligence data centers, according to the country's energy minister. Those AI-driven power needs alone will lift South Korea's demand for power by 25 to 30 gigawatts, the Minister of Climate, Energy and Environment Kim Sung-whan said in an interview this month. On top of that, the country will also need to contend with increased power demand due to the shift to electric vehicles from gasoline-engine cars and to heating via electricity rather than gas, he added.

BBC News

Jaguar Land Rover's decision to shed 4,000 jobs comes after the carmaker has travelled down a very rough road.

At the same time, it has been investing billions in an effort to reinvent itself for an electric future, in which it is likely to face intense competition from aggressively expanding Chinese brands. Executives have now decided a major overhaul is needed. One of the main concerns for JLR is China.

Tesla starts offering Cybercab robotaxi rides

Engadget

Tesla has officially launched the Cybercab robotaxi, nearly a couple of year since it unveiled the vehicle. On its website, the company has announced that it now offers Cybercab rides through its Robotaxi app on iOS and Android. Users can hail autonomous rides through the app in Austin, Dallas, Houston, Miami, Orlando and Tampa, but the Cybercab option only appears to be initially available in Austin. Even in Austin, what customers get will depend on the number of people in the group and on availability. They can't choose to get a Cybercab, at least for now.
