AI’s $5 Trillion Cost Needs Every Debt Market, JPMorgan Says
The furious push by AI hyperscalers to build out data centers will need about $1.5 trillion of investment-grade bonds over the next five years and extensive funding from every other corner of the market, according to an analysis by JPMorgan. From a report: “The question is not ‘which market will finance the AI-boom?’ Rather, the question is ‘how will financings … ⌘ Read more
I used Gemini (the Google AI) twice at work today, asking about Google Workspace configuration and Google Cloud CLI usage (because we use those a lot). You’d think that it’d be well-suited for those topics. It answered very confidently, yet completely wrong. Just wrong. Made-up CLI arguments, whatever. It took me a while to notice, though, because it’s so convincing and, well, you implicitly and subconsciously trust the results of the Google AI when asking about Google topics, don’t you?
Will it get better over time? Maybe. But what I really want is this:
- Good, well-structured, easy-to-read, proper documentation. Google isn’t doing too bad in this regard, actually, it’s just that they have so much stuff that it’s hard to find what you’re looking for. Hence …
- … I want a good search function. Just give me a good fuzzy search for your docs. That’s it.
I just don’t have the time or energy to constantly second-guess this stuff. Give me something reliable. Something that is designed to do the right thing, not toy around with probabilities. “AI for everything” is just the wrong approach.

Está por trás duma paywall e só sei desta notícia as gordas, mas é de aplaudir que a queixa seja feita - e de lamentar que ela tenha de ser feita.
Já me tinha queixado disto por aqui: quem é a comunicação social para decidir quem são ou não os candidatos presidenciais? A Lei é quem define estas coisas, não uma mão pouco cheia de cadeias televisivas. Que eles tenham escolhido fazer debates antes de haver candidatos é uma decisão que eles tomaram, e que não pode ser usada como desculpa para apontar dedos e decidir quem são os candidatos de primeira e de segunda. Até haver candidatos, há propostas de candidatura - e elas são bem mais que oito - todas iguais perante a lei, e perante os cidadãos.
“Ah, mas estes são quem tem mais probabilidade de chegar a algum lado” dirão, mas o perigo está exactamente aí - é ao retratar estes oito como “os candidatos” (no discurso utilizado nem referem que há outros!) que a comunicação social interfere, e faz levar os eleitores a estes em detrimento de outros.
Já levaram a extrema direita ao colo, não aprenderam nada.
Gostava agora de saber se partidos como o @LIVRE@LIVRE vão apoiar queixas destas: também eles já tiveram neste papel de ostracizados pela comunicação social (lembram-se da petição pela justiça nos debates das Europeias?).
