Then, ordinary users might conclude that such a tool is “OK, let's give it a try!” But even if solar geoengineering were to contribute globally, it could still have negative impacts, such as depleting the protective ozone layer, disrupting local rainfall patterns, reducing agricultural productivity, and altering the distribution of infectious diseases. So far, none of that has been incorporated into the results. Moreover, climate emulators are not equipped to address very complex societal concerns.

Can't afford a proper Comedy Central roast? Roast your Instagram feed with ChatGPT instead. Justin Bieber. Tom Brady. The Jonas Brothers. What do these celebrities have in common? They're all stereotypical white guys. But they were roasted in front of a live audience, and the whole thing was filmed for all to see. Roasting is nothing new. Newer generations may not know who Don Rickles is, but a quick YouTube search will reveal clips of the legendary comedian roasting the likes of Frank Sinatra and Ronald Reagan, and it's still going strong well into the 2010s.

At least one Southeast Asian country, Thailand, declared the arrival of La Niña in early August. Others have suggested there is a 70% chance of a La Niña event occurring between August and October 2024.

The 2023-2024 El Niño event was recorded as one of the five strongest on record, bringing heatwaves and droughts, but the La Niña event will be welcomed after it. This event affected agriculture in Southeast Asia, especially rice production.…

Greetings from Tokyo. I took last week off during the Obon holiday in Japan, thinking it would be a quiet period in the news. However, it was full of big news. I was totally surprised when Prime Minister Fumio Kishida announced that he will step down at the end of September.The race for the LDP presidential election is already heating up. More than 10 ruling party lawmakers have run for the LDP presidential election so far. Candidates need the recommendation of 20 party members, so it may be difficult for all of them to run. Still, the number of candidates…

The use of artificial intelligence in hospitals is growing rapidly and with little transparency, making it impossible to track how specific products are affecting the cost and quality of care. Whether AI is monitored is entirely up to individual health systems. “Every company is doing it differently, and many health systems aren't doing it,” says Michael Pensina, chief data scientist at Duke Health. The lack of systematic oversight of AI in healthcare poses safety and financial risks, he says, because poorly performing products can easily escape scrutiny. Pensina is one of several people proposing to fill this void with a…
