Suomen vaalitietojärjestelmä on päätetty jättää siirtämättä yhdysvaltalaisen Amazonin pilvipalveluihin. Ensi kevään eduskuntavaalit toteutetaan nykyisellä vaalitietojärjestelmällä.

Nobody, and I repeat, absolutely nobody should ever upload their medical information into an AI platform.

I am telling you this as a former intelligence officer.

BREAKING: Sugars essential for life have been found in pristine asteroid Bennu samples collected by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft. Combined with previous detections of amino acids and nucleobases, we see that life’s ingredients were widespread throughout the solar system: https://t.co/Tb3HpwZG9J

Goldman Sachs has released a shocking report summarizing the job types that AI will take over.

It states that AI has the potential to automate the work equivalent to 300 million people worldwide.

Those particularly affected are knowledge workers, with

・Administrative and support: 46%
・Legal: 44%
・Architecture and engineering: 37%

On the other hand, the impact on physical labor such as construction and maintenance is less than 6%. The result is that AI will first replace knowledge workers.

Mosquitoes have been found in Iceland for the first time as global heating makes the country more hospitable for insects.

The country was until this month one of the few places in the world that did not have a mosquito population. The other is Antarctica.

If we switched to #renewableenergy, the number of ships crossing the ocean would fall by 40% because they're just carrying coal & oil & gas!! https://t.co/wPsBnoWEwP

We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

NEW RESEARCH: Researchers from Imperial College London conclude: Safe CO₂ underground storage capacity far lower than previous estimates due to leakage risks, seismicity, engineering limits, and geopolitics.

At best, CCS looks like a scarce resource, not an unlimited backstop.

30.0 °C ylittyi tänään selvästi aikaisemmin verrattuna edeltäviin päiviin. Tämän myötä tänään on kesän 19. peräkkäinen päivä, kun lämpötila ylittää 30.0 °C jossain päin Suomea. Parikkalan Koitsanlahden havaintoasemalla elohopea nousi klo 10.00 ja 11.00 välillä 30.1 asteeseen.☀️🌡️

BREAKING: Apple just proved AI "reasoning" models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all.

They just memorize patterns really well.

So Google Sheets now has a "=AI" formula?!

You can process data that was impossible before in a spreadsheet.

Gemini understands what's in the cells and returns a tailor-made answer according to your instructions.
