Microsoft Copilot: Your AI companion Microsoft Copilot is your companion to inform, entertain, and inspire. Get advice, feedback, and straightforward answers. Try Copilot now.

I helped university students create practical workflows during the past 3 months. One of the tasks involved creating accessible content, such as a podcast based on trusted research. Without AI, this would have taken several hours, not 18 minutes. #RUNEUAI

I have Copilot in my pocket and it reminds me of questions I've asked it after casual meetings I've had concerning possible collaborations. #RUNEUAI

Jensen Huang

I was deep into an AI training session last Wednesday when Nvidia said it has $500 Bn of orders for its Blackwell and Rubin AI chips for delivery in 2026. That is nearly 20 times the revenue it earned in the 3 months to the end of October for which it reported latest results. #RUNEUAI

EU delays implementation of AI Act's rules for high-risk systems until late 2027 Official says extension is needed to avoid burdensome compliance before key support tools are ready - Anadolu Ajansı

"Burdensome compliance" cited by some observers watching the delay of the EU AI Act. #RUNEUAI

We analyzed 47,000 ChatGPT conversations. Here’s what people really use it for. What do people ask the popular chatbot? We analyzed thousands of chats to identify common topics discussed by users and patterns in ChatGPT’s responses.

More proof that ChatGPT wants to agree with you. #RUNEUAI

The case against superintelligent AI

I started reading the book to read why researchers should be banned from publishing ways to create more efficient and powerful AI techniques. #ICERI2025 #RUNEUAI

Power usage

I have an app that shows hiw much it costs in electricity to download, edit, and upload three hours of training videos. That is the big white spike in the power usage below. #runeuai

The AI Money Vortex OpenAI is worth $500 billion now. What are its investors getting back?

Worthwhile research. In another corner of the internet, my creatives note that when people use AI generated images/videos in their posts, they drastically reduce authenticity and trustworthiness.

AI Is Coming for Parents Apps are promising to ease the job of child-rearing—but they’re missing something crucial.

Apps and chatbots often reduce the amount of quality time people--especially parents--need to cement a human connection. #runeuai

AI is expensive and uses a lot of power.

I told people last night that their image-creation prompts with Copilot probably used the same amount of energy as boiling a full kettle of water for their tea. I need to cross-check the accuracy of that estimation. #RUNEUAI

ChatGPT encourages users to create study plans

I'm teaching university students how to create practical workflows with AI and now think it might be possible to port a lot of the content into open access materials that ChatGPT can access to create a study plan. #RUNEUAI

Filmora is another clever app that started using AI to complement workflows, showing professionals AI is more than prompting ChatGPT. #runeuai

Data services use water onsite and offsite. Deep analysis should consider both. #RUNEUAI

In a first, Google has released data on how much energy an AI prompt uses It’s the most transparent estimate yet from one of the big AI companies, and a long-awaited peek behind the curtain for researchers.

If you ask Gemini to reason deeply, summarise a dozen books, or produce videos, the energy usage will be more than a one second microwave oven burst. #RUNEUAI

Obsidian update

Obsidian now has @obsidian.md Bases, a core plugin that lets me turn any set of notes into a powerful database. With Bases I can organise everything from projects to travel plans, and reading lists--my three most-used actions. #RUNEUAI

The First AI Law That Actually Applies to You For months, AI regulation has felt like a future problem, something only developers and big tech needed to worry about. Not anymore.

And now there are laws regulating how AI in HR (defined as a "high risk" usage scenario) can be used:

Does HR still need humans? AI can perform many of the duties of human resources staff, a symbol of how it is changing companies and the nature of work

If my first employer in Ireland had used AI instead of traditional HR I know I would not have been hired. #RUNEUAI

Smart Connections Embedding Complete

Using Brian's Smart Connections plugin inside Obsidian because the plugin uses local AI embeddings to surface dozens of my forgotten notes without cloud uploads. Great for privacy. #RUNEUAI
