The EnergAIzer technique can predict how much power a certain AI workload will consume when run on a particular processor. This method could help data center operators and algorithm developers improve the sustainability of AI workloads.

Construction projects often suffer from a strict zero-tolerance error culture that discourages transparency and learning. A new study in Engineering suggests embracing unintentional action errors as inevitable opportunities for improvement. By shifting to error management with open communication and psychological safety, firms can boost learning, reduce hidden risks, and enhance long-term project performance. The piece calls for more research to support this constructive shift in the construction sector.

Conventional wisdom holds that lower cholesterol is better for heart health, but new Views & Comments in Engineering challenges this idea. A large cross‑ethnic study finds a U-shaped cholesterol–mortality link in Chinese adults: both very low and high levels raise death risk, with low levels linked to higher cancer and hemorrhagic stroke risk. Optimal cholesterol levels differ between Chinese and UK adults, calling for personalized, population-tailored management.
