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.

Take action!

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.

The Environmental Protection Agency (epa.gov) ) website includes a short history
of the agency. Here’s some of what you can find there
(https://epa.gov/history/origins-epa).
“The American conversation about protecting the environment began in the 1960s.
Rachel Carson had published her attack on the indiscriminate use of
pesticides, Silent Spring, in 1962.  Concern about air and water pollution had
spread in the wake of disasters.  An offshore oil rig in California fouled beaches
with millions of gallons of spilled oil. Near Cleveland, Ohio, the Cuyahoga River,
choking with chemical contaminants, had spontaneously burst into flames.
Astronauts had begun photographing the Earth from space, heightening awareness
that the Earth’s resources are finite.
“In early 1970, as a result of heightened public concerns about deteriorating city
air, natural areas littered with debris, and urban water supplies contaminated with
dangerous impurities, President Richard Nixon presented the House and Senate a

In my article, “The High Price of War with Iran: $10 Gas and the Collapse of the U.S. Economy,” I reminded readers of how Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been behind the push for America to destroy Iraq, Libya, Syria and now Iran. I reviewed the severe economic consequences for the U.S. if it attacks Iran. Today, I cite the human health and atmospheric effects of a U.S. attack on Iran’s nuclear research facilities. The resulting nuclear fallout would bring a catastrophe unprecedented in human history.
