    I can share the link to the chatGPT that listed all the examples of data centres that donate their heat to cities if you like. Here is one of the datacentres listed. What you see are heatpumps, you already know that, but you did not check where the heat is going to. ChatGPT can prove that to...

    They also run heat pumps to bring the water to much higher temperature than the 40C that comes out of the data centres. ChatGPT can help you with questions like how did they do that. Have you used chatGPT?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It's about time that student visas need to be scrutinised. That's the kind of measures I support although I accept that students who have graduated here should be encouraged to seek employment and stay, not to become refugees. They pay tuition fees but this country invests in their education too.

    Typical ballpark: A short 100-word answer might use around 1–2 Wh. A longer 300-word answer (taking 3× longer) might use around 3–6 Wh. That's less than 1 penny for answering 3-4 questions on average. The cost also halves every 18 months due to better AI processors. It's much more efficient...

    Not really. It caveated that polls can move quickly. That's something I have mentioned before, Reform's numbers changed quickly from May (peak) then lower in June - July then seems to increase in August. It's driven by newspapers. Starmer works on long term solutions, reduce legal migration...

    It's a good thing in politics that people talk to AI. They take the emotional out and reinforce the rational.

    Didn't make any of that up. I was asking ChatGPT about investing in geothermal projects, compared to other projects on renewables. The conversation moves to the landscape of electricy generation in the UK in 10 years time. I copied and pasted that table from ChatGPT. BTW, you should read some of...

    You don't need to think like a civil servant to understand civil servants. They are apolitical in their work. The can only follow legal orders, have to object when given illegal orders, even the military. They serve the crown, not politicians. Democracy is to serve all the people, not just...

It was far from perfect but still a refreshing change from the two party system. Ever...

    What American system? They have thousands of political appointees whose job is how to use their civil service for their political agenda instead of serving the community. You would end up with litigation left right and centre. Most of the times, failure is usually a code word for not aligned to...
