It looks like 2025 will end up at about 1.47°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline, making it likely the third hottest year in the last 120,000+ years.
Meanwhile, the 3-year running average is going to end the year above 1.50°C for the first time.

If someone tells you the CO2 is coming out of the sea, they try to fool you. We know exactly where it comes from and where it goes. We emit CO2, about half of that stays in the atmosphere, and a quarter each is taken up by oceans and forests.

LLMs use grammar shortcuts that undermine reasoning, creating reliability risks
Large language models (LLMs) sometimes learn the wrong lessons, according to an MIT study. Rather than answering a query based on domain knowledge, an LLM could respond by leveraging grammatical patterns it learned during training.
