In this @UMichiganNews Q&A, professors Nigel Melville (@MichiganRoss) and Shobita Parthasarathy (@FordSchool) discuss the need to emphasize AI’s societal impacts over technological advancements. https://t.co/I3zDmbYzuK
“And instead of starting with surprise launches that force solutions on people, the efforts should begin on the ground, with community conversations that strive to understand the concerns these technologies raise and to make the case for why we need to understand them better.”
"There's a global race to lead in battery electric vehicle technology. The state gave us this money so we can remain the center of excellence." - U-M EV Center Director Alan Taub
Turbulence is getting worse because of climate change. @jesse_caps explains why, and warns that we can't really look to the past for guidance about the future climate anymore.
A consequence of #climatechange is increases in atmospheric turbulence resulting in bumpier flights. I provided some comments on this topic to @IBTimes, including how historical data is becoming less reliable, increasing the need for physics-based modeling https://t.co/7LgUBGP02w
Thanks to feedback from fans on Twitter and elsewhere, we updated our guidance on use of the word "incident."
Try to avoid this term, which is vague and often used as jargon by police and others. Instead, be specific about what happened. That includes later references.
It will be up to regulators in statehouses and on public service commissions to ensure that utilities prioritize projects that drive emissions reductions, save families money, and reduce pollution.
It was SUCH a treat to collaborate with the incredible @emilygrubert on this paper. In it, we peer into how utility decision-making could shape how 45Q in the #InflationReductionAct is implemented.
The numbers show just how important regulatory oversight will be to outcomes👇
We have a new paper out on socioeconomic inequalities in power restoration. This was a great collaboration, and I hope it spurs others to do more research on this issue.

I had a chance to talk with NPR's @aprilbaer about the ice storm and power outages today. Planning for power system resilience in the face of climate-related weather events is a challenge! https://t.co/XY8AuGaJvs
"I can’t be the only one for whom memories of ages 16 to, say, 25 consist mostly of sitting around bedrooms, crappy dorm rooms, and crappier apartments, doing nothing much at all." https://t.co/rtdgoUa08A
