AXIOS (Amy Harder) - Renewables boom faces a Trump-era cliff

America is adding record amounts of clean power despite President Trump's opposition to wind and solar — but the industry's top trade group warns the growth could fall off a "cliff" as soon as 2028. Why it matters: The disconnect illustrates the long lag between energy policy and what actually gets built, raising the stakes for a bipartisan permitting deal under negotiation now in the Senate. State of play: Wind and solar development is still benefiting from favorable economics and projects launched before Trump returned to the White House, Jason Grumet, CEO of the American Clean Power Association, told Axios. - "If the administration continues to block the permitting of clean power, you'll start to see a cliff," said Grumet, who said…

According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, what portion of new power capacity do wind and solar account for this year?
Wind and solar account for nearly two-thirds of the new power capacity developers plan to add to the U.S. grid this year.

AXIOS (Ina Fried) - OpenAI debuts "dots" as industry safety focus shifts to "What did my AI assistant do now?"

OpenAI is equipping high-end subscribers with always-on agents, known as dots . It's a bold move from a company that continues to deal with reports of its agents breaking past intended safeguards. Why it matters: AI's safety challenge has moved from "Will the chatbot say something harmful?" to "How can we stop autonomous agents from hacking attempts online?" to "Uh-oh, what did my AI assistant do now?" Driving the news: The unveiling of dots was the signature debut among a flurry of announcements at OpenAI's developer conference on Tuesday. - Think of a dot as an AI assistant running in its own virtual computer in the cloud. It can browse the web, use connected apps, create files and run tools while keeping track of a project over time. …

Why did OpenAI decide to scrap an update to its Astra model recently?
OpenAI scrapped an update to its most powerful Astra model because it failed to meet established safety thresholds.

Q&A ID b41cffa1-a699-4c0b-8fbd-c4805a54c184
What safety measures and systems does OpenAI claim are included in the dots agents?
OpenAI states that dots include safeguards from ChatGPT and Codex, along with additional protections from an internal system called Guardian, which is known publicly as auto-review. Additionally, by default, the agents require user approval for significant actions; for example, a dot can draft a message but cannot send it to another person or agent without user permission, and it will not complete certain consequential financial transactions, handing control back to the user instead.
