How smaller, distributed batteries could help the grid

MIT Technology Review

From e-bikes to stoves, here's how companies are adding energy storage in surprising ways. If you want to install a big battery in New York City, you have to cut through a notoriously tough tangle of regulations. That's made it difficult to get large energy storage projects on the grid. Faced with those obstacles, some startups are getting creative, finding ways to use relatively small batteries in unexpected places, from induction stovetops to food carts. By deploying these more consumer-focused batteries, the companies are helping people directly, cutting pollution or power bills. And these units, while small on their own, could add up to a lot of capacity.

Climate protesters say tech companies, not AI, are the real 'danger to humankind' โ€“ and the planet

The Guardian

Climate protesters say tech companies, not AI, are the real'danger to humankind' - and the planet O n Monday evening, protesters gathered outside the unmarked Manhattan offices of OpenAI, maker of ChatGPT, holding signs calling to "Eat the rich, save the planet". Over the next two days, groups also picketed outside the offices of fellow tech giants Google and Amazon; other protesters, including clergy, were arrested while disrupting a closed-door AI health summit in the city. Tonight, protesters will target a Brooklyn gas power plant that was set to close - until it was purchased to power AI datacenters. The protests come on the heels of an Anthropic employee quitting his job with a warning that intensified an already-growing AI panic: "The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade." Though it was far from the first time an AI expert had issued a doomsday message about the threat the tech poses, this time it dominated public attention, arriving as trust in big tech has hit an all-time low and communities across the country are trying to stop the building of datacenters.

NYC's AI ban through grade 8 sets stage for rest of US, experts say

NYC's AI ban through grade 8 sets stage for rest of US, experts say Share NYC's AI ban through grade 8 sets stage for rest of US, experts say on social media New York City's ban on use of artificial intelligence in the classroom for elementary and middle school students in the city's public school system - the largest in the country - could set the stage for how other school systems in the United States tailor their approach to the use of AI, experts say. The moratorium, which was announced on Wednesday, will last for one year and will end the use of 40 different educational tools impacting 600,000 students. The ban will not bar teachers from using the technology to create lesson plans. They need to develop skills alongside their peers, build relationships with educators and wrestle with tough problems on their own," Mayor Zohran Mamdani said in a news conference on Wednesday. "The tech industry wants us to believe that AI-powered early education is not only inevitable, but necessary.
