Language models hallucinate for the same reason students sometimes bluff on exams: they haven’t seen every fact, their “thinking style” has limits, and the scoring system punishes admitting ignorance.

Today we commemorate the 103rd anniversary of the Battle of Dumlupınar (30 August 1922), a defining moment in Turkish War of Independence. I honour with respect those who gave their lives and health for our homeland, & heroes who fought for freedom, led by Commander-in-Chief Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.

I will speak at the @oxfordsmithschool.bsky.social Sustainable Finance Summit 2025 on 16 July on #ArtificialIntelligence as an enabler for #sustainablefinance markets and discuss whether it can keep its promise. I hope to connect with many of the distinguished speakers and participants.

Explore the IEA’s Energy and AI report, with… AI. 🤷🏾♂️ (well, you don't have/need to)
#AI has the potential to transform the #energy sector in coming decade, driving a surge in #electricity demand from #datacentres around the world while also unlocking opportunities according to the IEA’s new report.

While tariffs going up and markets down, let us do not forget the bigger picture... Climate scorpion is still out there: "Focusing on the most likely outcomes under #climatechange lulls us into a false sense of security, since there is still an uncomfortably high probability of ECS of 5°C or higher.

2024 is confirmed to be the warmest year on record globally, and the first calendar year that the average global temperature exceeded 1.5°C above its pre-industrial level.
🚨 The monthly global average temperature exceeded 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for 11 months of the year.

Wishing a year marked by peace. Wishing a year where the most basic rights are not violated. Wishing a year where everyone is treated equally and with dignity. Wishing a year where conventions are respected no matter what.

Number of the day? 📈 #Climatefinance has demonstrated resilience and growth amid global crises, reaching USD 1.5 trillion in 2022 (estimated as up to 1.6 trillion in 2023). #RenewableEnergy and low-carbon #transport contributed most to this increase.

Another fascinating figure. 🤯 A large container ship of #solarPV panels can provide the means to produce as much #electricity as the gas from +50 large LNG tankers or the coal from +100 large ships.

Number(s) of the day? 🚨 Manufacturing capacity for #cleantechnologies and materials today is highly concentrated geographically, with China the largest single producer in all cases. (From @IEA ETP 2024)

Number of the day? ⚠️ The globally-averaged surface concentration of CO2 reached 420.0 parts per million (ppm), methane 1934 parts per billion and nitrous oxide 336.9 parts per billion (ppb) in 2023. These values are 🚨 151%, 🚨265% and 🚨125% of pre-industrial (before 1750) levels.

If you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? - Not on track - hear it? – If no further ambition is shown, the best we could get is catastrophic #globalwarming of up to 2.6°C. Not just seize the day, bolster #climateaction.
