Building disruptive tech & hard science solutions for our planet

@elonmusk @xai Impressive size. So, “Colossus” … the Helios reference is interesting … some may find the branding unsettling. Can you update us on any shifts in your views on the future of AI and your intent?

Trains, trucks and airplanes… important things that need a zero emission solution. Energy demands that will only work based on molecules not electrons. Weight is important, recharge time is critical, and distance matters. #hydrogen

spotted in central france:
a fully hydrogen powered (!) train
the only emissions: steam & water

Hydrogen is not bound by the same geographic constraints as fossil fuels or resource extraction for batteries. It is a massive opportunity for global equity and stability. Agreed! 2022 tech stories that will shape our world | The Star #hydrogen #autonomy https://t.co/gprg8YDaGV

@Milkabot @bcmoffatt @indramaharjan We need to take a systems change approach. The value is there, the existing system doesn’t reward it properly. Everyone is doing what they should under current mandates. It’s not a simple process, but also not something we should shy away from due to market made challenges.

@Milkabot @bcmoffatt @indramaharjan We are on the same page... biogas that can be put in the natural gas supply or used directly in any other current natural gas related use.
