AI and the Energy Sector
A onprofit electricity research and development organization, EPRI, https://www.epri.com/, announced a collaboration with Microsoft to develop and deploy AI solutions for the energy sector.
The OpenPower AI consortium will collaborate with energy companies globally in an effort to enhance grid reliability, improve workforce safety, advance forecasting and planning models and achieve real-time grid intelligence by using artificial intelligence. EPRI announced the launch of the OpenPower AI consortium at Nividia's GTC conference https://msites.epri.com/opai last month, stating that the effort hopes to drive the development and deployment of an OpenAI model tailored to the power sector.
The consortium will focus on three primary areas.
The first is to develop and maintain open-source AI models, data sets, libraries, as well as optimizing power sector specific challenges.
Last week, 15 Palestinian paramedics and rescue workers, including a United Nations employee went missing. They’ve since been discovered buried in a mass grave, each of them executed one by one by Israeli military forces.
In an attempt to rehash failed legislation from the 135th General Assembly, Ohio legislators – who are more focused on conflating criticism of Israel with antisemitism – are attempting to pass a pair of bills that could severely limit the ability of Ohioans to criticize the actions of the Israeli government. S.B. 87, or its House version, H.B. 90, and S.B. 53 are bills that, when applied separately or in tandem, could prove devastating to free speech criticizing the state of Israel.

Piketon’s Town Hall will be a big deal for the community of Piketon, Ohio, which for 70 years has been suffering the effects of radioactive contamination from the Portsmouth Nuclear Site (PORTS), 4 miles south of the village.
The Town Hall will be hosted by reporter Duane Pohlman of WKRC TV in Cincinnati. It will be a forum to give voice to the people in the area who have suffered cancers and other illnesses in their families.
Several radioactive isotopes have been found in Department of Energy (DOE) monitors outside PORTS and in offsite samples taken for the DOE by Solutient Technologies and analyzed by Auxier & Associates. Dr. Michael Ketterer, professor emeritus of chemistry and biochemistry at Northern Arizona State University, will also speak. He has analyzed samples taken from outside PORTS and has also found radioactivity. Epidemiologist Joseph Mangano will speak online from New Jersey. He has reported that the premature death rate in Pike County is twice the national average. PORTS looms large as a suspect in these illnesses.
