Ennen kielimalleja huolehttiin Bitcoinin tolkuttomasta energiankulutuksesta. Joku muistutti Mastodonissa, että sekin jatkaa kasvamistaan, tosin tekoäly saattaa piankin ajaa sen edelle - ellei ole jo.

Bitcoin Energy Consumption Index - Digiconomist
The Bitcoin Energy Consumption Index provides the latest estimate of the total energy consumption of the Bitcoin network.

The French energy regulator has now decided on the demand and solar injection zones on the grid, for which optional countercyclical grid fees apply to battery storage systems (as of August next year).
These negative/countercyclical grid fees can serve as inspiration for Europe on how to deal with energy storage.

The French energy regulator, CRE - Commission de régulation de l'énergie, has now decided on the demand and solar injection zones on the high-voltage (HV) and medium-voltage (MV) grids, for which optional countercyclical grid fees apply to battery storage systems. A negative price in the network tariff rewards 'grid-friendly' behaviour, meaning discharging during the winter morning and evening demand peak in zones defined as demand zones. Conversely, battery systems installed in solar inject…

When LLM apologists tell me that models will get better[Citation Needed], what they fail to understand is that my disinterest is moral, not utilitarian.
I don’t care if we’ll see better models.
I care if we’ll see models that are trained entirely on corpuses created with informed consent*, using compute, electric, and water resources well understood and agreed upon.

Concentration and non-concentration of eigenfunctions of second-order elliptic operators with a divergence form in layered media
Let $Ω$ ' $\subset$ R^d , d = 1, 2, . . . be an open bounded smooth domain, and $Ω= Ω'\times (0,H)\subset \mathbb{R}^d \times \mathbb\_+.$ The coordinates in $Ω$ are designated as x = (x ' , y) $\in$ $Ω$ ' x (0, H). The paper deals with the concentration (and non-concentration) properties (in sectors of $Ω$) of the eigenfunctions of the self-adjoint second-order elliptic operator $A = -\nabla\cdot\tilde{c}\nabla$ in $L^2(Ω,dx)$ with domain $D(A) = \{v\in H\_0^1(Ω); \tilde{c}\nabla v…

FuelCast: Benchmarking Tabular and Temporal Models for Ship Fuel Consumption
In the shipping industry, fuel consumption and emissions are critical factors due to their significant impact on economic efficiency and environmental sustainability. Accurate prediction of ship fuel consumption is essential for further optimization of maritime operations. However, heterogeneous methodologies and limited high-quality datasets hinder direct comparison of modeling approaches. This paper makes three key contributions: (1) we introduce and release a new dataset (https://huggingface…

By changing our diets now, we can avoid the food chaos that climate change is bringing
Climate change is pushing up the prices of the food that we buy and therefore changing what we eat. One-third of UK food price increases in 2023 resulted from climate change, according to research by agricultural economists. This extra cost contributed to food price inflation and the UK's cost-of-living crisis.

Water Demand Forecasting of District Metered Areas through Learned Consumer Representations
Advancements in smart metering technologies have significantly improved the ability to monitor and manage water utilities. In the context of increasing uncertainty due to climate change, securing water resources and supply has emerged as an urgent global issue with extensive socioeconomic ramifications. Hourly consumption data from end-users have yielded substantial insights for projecting demand across regions characterized by diverse consumption patterns. Nevertheless, the prediction of water…
