Clay Bavor at #axiosaisummit, on asking early Google LLM to “explain the financial crisis by using a movie reference.”

The reply: “it’s like Inception. But instead of dreams within dreams, it’s debt within debt.”

Keeping an eye on the longer-term trajectory is difficult, but it will pay dividends, not just for the climate but in terms of financial results also. @TIME @JustinWorland #ClimateAction

We’ll need to remove CO2 from the atmosphere at gigaton scale to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change. @Google has pledged to match @ENERGY's $35M investment in carbon removal solutions and amplify efforts to grow this nascent industry. Learn more: https://t.co/0MyfiW7d4X

[Secretary Jennifer Granholm @SecGranholm]

We're partnering with Google to take CO2 removal to a whole new level in the U.S.

The @FECMgov Voluntary Carbon Dioxide Removal Challenge will call on orgs to boost America's CO2 removal efforts to help reach net-zero by 2050 or earlier.

Now, who's next?

The industry began changing about five years ago, when companies like @Google launched efforts to run their operations on renewable power 24/7 and found that wind and solar, which can’t supply uninterrupted power, couldn’t get there on their own. #Geothermal #CleanEnergy @WSJ

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

Oil-and-gas companies are stepping up geothermal investments, betting the technologies that fueled the shale revolution can turn the budding industry into a big producer of clean power https://t.co/KURBiPWKQx https://t.co/KURBiPWKQx

[Michael Terrell @michael_terrell]

Great speaking with @naurtorious at @Bloomberg on how @Google pioneered a new way to shift our electricity use to the times and locations where the grid is the cleanest - an important tool to decarbonize our global data centers and the electricity systems that serve them. 1/

"AI could be humanity’s last chance to meet climate goals," write Google Chief Sustainability Officer @KateEBrandt and @BCG Global Chair Rich Lesser in a new commentary piece.

Here’s why. https://t.co/dQCadGAzqC

[Corina Standiford @Corina_SF]

At @Google, we believe that responsible AI can help tackle some of the world’s greatest challenges. By scaling currently proven applications and technology, AI could mitigate 5-10% of global GHG emissions by 2030. Read more @Fortune @KateEBrandt
