💼 經濟與商業

  1. 魁北克水電局擬將資料中心電價約倍增至0.13加元/千瓦時。 顧問公司鄧斯基(Dunsky)向能源監管局(Régie de l’énergie)報告,北美資料中心電力需求估計在2024至2030年間將成長約133%,主要由人工智慧運算工作負載推動。魁北克水電局(Hydro-Québec)為此為5兆瓦或以上場址提出將電價從約0.0682加元/千瓦時調高到平均0.13加元/千瓦時的方案,並表示平均生產成本接近0.12加元/千瓦時,監管機構正審查該提案。

🏛️ 政府與政治

  1. 蒙特婁承諾今冬提供3,000張緊急收容床位。 市長索拉雅·馬丁內斯·費拉達(Soraya Martinez Ferrada)宣布,市府計畫今冬提供3,000個收容名額,稱無家可歸是城市最大的人人道危機,並將此承諾與即將就任省長保羅·聖皮耶·普拉蒙東(Paul St-Pierre Plamondon)優先處理無家可歸問題的承諾相呼應。此宣告緊接本週蒙特婁北部(Montréal-Nord)發生的營地火警,造成一名女性喪生。

  2. 研究:約40%魁北克選民使用聊天機器人,許多人獲得錯誤選舉資訊。 麥吉爾大學研究人員(McGill)向議會委員會表示,估計約40%的魁北克選民曾向人工智慧聊天機器人詢問選舉相關資訊。研究發現,在研究期間提供給使用者的ChatGPT投票建議中,有39%來源於單一且易出錯的愛好網站,主要因多家魁北克新聞機構阻止聊天機器人索引其內容,導致聊天機器人在競選期間轉向品質較低的網站作為資訊來源。

  3. 魁北克法醫檢驗官展開對五名醫師自殺案的調查。 魁北克法醫檢驗官辦公室證實,已就近期五起醫師自殺案展開調查,目的在釐清案發情況及與這些死亡有關的制度性因素。此項調查將蒐集案卷與證詞,作為正式法醫調查程序的一部分。

  4. 專家討論克莉絲汀·弗雷謝特是否面臨「玻璃懸崖」。 政治學者梅蘭妮·托馬斯(Melanee Thomas)在訪談中表示,像前魁北克省長克莉絲汀·弗雷謝特(Christine Fréchette)這類女性,常於政黨處境不佳時承擔領導職務,此一模式被稱為「玻璃懸崖」或「性別化政治機會結構」,她認為弗雷謝特的上任與近期辭職符合這項更廣泛趨勢,本週相關政治分析中有討論此現象。
