By definition thats very confusing. Well, despite opposition, the Oakland Port Commission gives final approval today to changing the name of the oakland airport. This is ktvu, fox two news at 730. It was a unanimous vote, one that San Francisco officials tonight say they will fight in court. Nice to have you with me on this thursday night. Im heather holmes, so the Oakland International airport is no more. The port of oaklands board of commissioners voting for the second time today to rename the airport San Francisco bay Oakland International airport. And the reaction tonight from the City Attorneys Office in San Francisco is one of disappointment. The office telling ktvu that San Francisco will move forward with this next steps in his trademark lawsuit. Our tom baker has more now on this contentious fight over the airports name change. Vote no to the name change and no to the airport expansion. Please protect the east bay and lead the way to a Healthy Future with fewer flights and les
Today. The same is true of many other locations along with the heat, though it has also been windy once again today, the gusty conditions posing a bit of a challenge for firefighters here in hayward as they work to contain a fire that burned dangerous close to several homes, as you see here, started around 11 this morning near poppy, wood court and silverthorne place. Firefighters say this may have started as a car fire that spread to trees nearby. Several vehicles burned. Some neighbors were seen using garden hoses and buckets of water to try to protect their properties. All right, lets give you a live look here this afternoon in the east bay. And this is the scene along highway four in the pittsburg bay point area. Of course, inland spots like this are really experiencing the heat this afternoon. For more on the weather, lets bring in meteorologist mark tamayo to tell us how long the warm temperatures will stick around. Doesnt sound like this is going to be any sort of an extended he
Good afternoon. Im andre senior. Im gasia mikaelian. We begin with breaking news in the east bay as firefighters are at the scene of a fire in hayward. Skyfox flew overhead just minutes ago. You could see at one point there were roaring flames coming from the structure fire happening in a neighborhood at cypress and jackson streets. We understand when firefighters arrived, there was thick black smoke and flames already leaping up into trees, which appear to be between a row of homes. There we can see firefighters even what appear to be residents, likely good samaritans, trying to do their very best to protect their homes. We see them taking buckets of water, trying to protect their property. At this point, no reports of any injuries, but this was for a time a massive fire. We know it was at least a one alarm. Were working to get more information on that, but nowhere just yet on how the fire started. Keep this in mind if you are still smelling smoke in the area of hayward. Straight now
Would have sold immediately and you wouldve been entirely wrong. Thats because metas billionaire rival reported two of the best quarters ive ever seen in ages. Bedding like mad on Artificial Intelligence and the cloud and search just like meta but theres enough business for all of them. Throw in some tepid inflation data that helps with the rate cut and the market just roared. The dow gained 155 points. S p jumped 1. 02 and the nasdaq searching 2. 03 . I like that. This was a good set up. May be one of the toughest weeks we have seen in ages. That is because it is loaded with earnings and we have a fed meeting and a report on friday. Im already exhausted next week. Lets take the week. Starting with sunday night. I dont usually do this but Bill Whitaker from 60 minutes interviews jensen long, the ceo of nvidia. Normally we dont care about that but i bet it could have impact on the stock. So many people are invested in nvidia. I say maybe be prepared for a monday bump from 60 minutes. Mo
for more of this energy hungry infrastructure. also on the show, we re going to get the view from the us tech giant ibm. yeah, they ve seen their demand for al skyrocket. so what are they doing to cut down on their carbon emissions? wherever you rejoining me from around the world, once again, a big hello and a warm welcome to the show. artificial intelligence. yep, ai. it is everywhere nowadays. and the big tech companies like google, meta, microsoft, and now apple, they re muscling in to be at the head of the ai race, unveiling ever more sophisticated chat bots and other machine learning tools. but one aspect of the ai race that s perhaps not talked about as much is the impact on the environment. these language models, like chatgpt, are some of the most energy guzzling technologies. they need vast data centres to store the amount of data required to train the chat bots. so let me just show you some of the numbers. emissions from global cloud computing account for around 2.1%
