Quick Glance: UNRWA Report Highlights Lack of Evidence for Israel's Employee Militancy Claims
- An independent review commissioned by the United Nations found that Israel has not provided evidence to support its accusation that a 'significant' number of employees of the U.N. relief agency for Palestinian refugees in the Gaza Strip are members of terrorist organizations.
- The review, led by former French foreign minister Catherine Colonna, revealed that UNRWA 'plays an indispensable and irreplaceable role in the region,' despite issues such as employees expressing political views and offices being used for 'political or military purposes'.
- The review listed recommendations to enhance UNRWA operations, including improved training, more rigorous employee screening, and a thorough review of all textbooks and supplements.
- Concerns were raised regarding the screening of UNRWA employees and the content of textbooks, while Israel has yet to provide evidence to support the claim that a significant number of UNRWA employees are members of terrorist organizations.

Quick Glance: Poll: Election Interest Declines in Tight Biden-Trump Race
- The interest of voters in the election has reached the lowest point in two decades at this stage in a presidential race.
- The latest national NBC News poll reveals that the number of voters with high interest in the 2024 presidential election has nearly hit the lowest point in almost 20 years, with a majority holding negative views of President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.
- Inflation and immigration top the list of the country's most pressing issues, with only one-third of voters giving Biden credit for improving economic performance.
- The survey also highlights how the low voter interest and the independent candidacy of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could potentially disrupt what has been a stable presidential contest with over six months until Election Day.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman invests in solar power firm Exowatt to fuel AI datacenters: $20m to keep the industry from having to rely on fossil fuels
theregister.com/2024/04/22/openai_ceo_sam_altman_invests/
Quick Glance: OpenAI CEO Supports Solar Power for AI Datacenters
- Exowatt, a new player in the solar energy sector, has been established with financial backing from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and other investors.
- Exowatt's cutting-edge technology allows for the development of solar panels that store energy as heat and convert it into electricity. A key feature is the integration of panels and heat batteries into a single unit.
- The increasing energy demands of datacenters, especially those involved in AI training, pose a significant challenge. Sam Altman raised concerns about energy consumption in January, emphasizing the need for a breakthrough to advance AI.
- Altman's investment in Exowatt was partly driven by his connection with Abraham. This is not the OpenAI CEO's first energy investment. In the short term, more traditional forms of solar and nuclear power will be utilized as Exowatt and other energy companies are still in their early stages.
