Promoters of nuclear power have used historically an analogous narrative, of 'cheap energy', which has been unfulfilled, e.g. link.springer.com/chapter/10.1...
Nuclear is not 'the' solution. There are better, cheaper, less risky ways to decarbonise.

This helps neither people nor planet:
attacks on nuclear sites are realistic, the risks are enormous and decommissioning & disposal costs are exorbitant.

To use the short-cut of generative AI effectively rather than mindlessly and uncritically, you need to know how to do the task without the short-cut. My column today is on how universities deal with students' embrace of AI on.ft.com/4iqHT1F

Ex-pats viven por el mundo sin pedir a la escuela pΓΊblica que enseΓ±e menos en mandarΓ­n o en indonesio.
