"...there is no #AI without #energy; at the same time, AI has the potential to transform the energy sector."

📊 This "Energy and AI" #report from the International Energy Agency (#IEA) is based on new global and regional modelling and #datasets, as well as extensive consultation with governments and regulators, the #tech sector, the energy industry and international experts.

"Almost two dozen repositories of research and public health data supported by the National Institutes of Health are marked for “review” under the Trump administration’s direction, and researchers and archivists say the data is at risk of being lost forever if the repositories go down.

“The problem with archiving this data is that we can’t,” Lisa Chinn, Head of Research Data Services at the University of Chicago, told 404 Media. Unlike other government datasets or web pages, downloading or otherwise archiving NIH data often requires a Data Use Agreement between a researcher institution and the agency, and those agreements are carefully administered through a disclosure risk review process.

A message appeared at the top of multiple NIH websites last week that says: “This repository is under review for potential modification in compliance with Administration directives.”
Repositories with the message include archives of cancer imagery, Alzheimer’s disease research, sleep studies, HIV databases, and COVID-19 vaccination and mortality data."

#ListenBrainz / #MetaBrainz I'm confused. Aren't sponsors the true customer? Why use this? 🤔

On one hand #Music: "Listen together", "Ethical forever"

On the other: #DATASETS

"Some of the world’s biggest platforms such as Google and Amazon, use our data"

"We ask commercial supporters to support us in order to help fund the creation and maintenance of these datasets."

"The following organizations make use of the data-sets published by MetaBrainz"

"Unicorn tier: #Google, #Amazon, #Spotify"

STAT: Gold-standard maternal mortality database in limbo as CDC staff placed on leave. “As part of the sweeping layoffs that rocked the Department of Health and Human Services on Tuesday, the entire staff that oversaw an annual survey to better understand infant and maternal health — and that was considered the gold standard in the field — was placed on administrative leave.

Clemson News: Study: Researchers’ choices could result in different conclusions from the same data . “If you give hundreds of researchers the same data and the same hypotheses to test, they will reach the same conclusions, right? Wrong, according to a recent study published in the journal BMC Biology. Two hundred forty-six researchers in the fields of ecology and evolutionary biology — […]

This data may vanish under Trump, so we charted it
Some of most valuable #datasets in human history vanished from #US #government websites, felt like watching Library of Alexandria go up in smoke
Many have gone on record describing #Census Bureau’s #American Community Survey as wonder of modern world
Another loss? #HouseholdPulse survey, online survey that provided week-by-week data on income losses, economic struggles and precarious mental health
