Exxonโ€™s 1982 report is pretty easy to read and very easy to find online if you search for it โ€œ1982 Exxon internal reportโ€. Itโ€™s titled A Primer on CO2 and Climate Change

New AMS Statement: Dismantling NSFโ€™s National Center for Atmospheric Research would weaken U.S. leadership in weather, water, and climate science, putting public safety at risk.

For more than 60 years, NSF NCAR has improved forecasts and early warnings that save lives. More: https://bit.ly/4q6eChn

Thanks, thatโ€™s believable. Obviously I donโ€™t live in NY or a place dense enough to really understand these changes.

For sure. Itโ€™s worth knowing the impact though and itโ€™s interesting anyway. They may see their own increased congestion, which is likely worthwhile but is still worth understanding. Itโ€™s a potential cost of these changes right?

New Mexico will be the first state to make child care free The program, which is expected to save families $12,000 per child annually, is available to all residents regardless of income.

New Mexico's economy is a fraction of the size of New York City's.

If they can enact universal childcare โ€” and relieve working families of a crushing cost burden โ€” surely we can too.

It's just a question of political will.

How it works in NM is simply a matter of committing available funds to it. The state has the money from oil and gas tax revenue and has chosen to put it towards this.

I want to clarify that my example here is actually what I think is one of the best use cases of LLMs (as a sort of search and parsing tool).

The problem is handing everyone the keys to a very confident-sounding implementation of that. It takes subject matter experts to verify the results.

I meant no criticism. You admitted some ignorance of AI, and I wanted to provide information. These systems arenโ€™t inherently trustworthy, and thereโ€™s currently no method to evaluate โ€œtrust.โ€ Use them for verifiable information only. They canโ€™t verifiably determine if an image is real or fake.

Your interpretation is more believable if the preceding sentences didnโ€™t exist. It makes more sense to interpret this generously and advocate for clearer writing.

Our paper aims to provide an ML-based view of mid-latitude S2S predictability that could help open new scientific pathways and increase our ability to handle weather-related risks.

If I recall correctly, it was first hypothesized in the 19th century when scientists were considering the impacts of industrialization.

Climate models since the 1970s nailed itโ€”most predicted global warming almost exactly as it happened.

Itโ€™s entirely possible to do that much soon, it will just depend on social pressures. The technology is nearly there.
