The Volta floods have become a nationwide catastrophe, displacing over 26,000 people due to the decision by the Volta River Authority (VRA), to release excess water from the Akosombo and Kpong dams.

Microsoft’s new AI assistant can go to meetings for you

International, Science & Technology
A ChatGPT-style AI assistant, developed by Microsoft and embedded into its office apps, will become available to all from 1 November, following trials. Microsoft 365 Copilot can summarise meetings held in Teams for anyone who chooses not to attend. It can also draft emails, create word documents, spreadsheet graphs, and Powerpoint presentations in moments. Microsoft says it hopes the tool will eliminate "drudgery" but some worry tech like this will replace workers. There are also concerns it could leave businesses dangerously reliant on AI-powered assistance. What is AI and is it dangerous? In its current form, it could also fall foul of new rules governing AI, for failing to make clear when content has not been made by humans. Both Europe's AI act and China's AI regul...

Finnish telecoms giant Nokia is to axe between 9,000 and 14,000 jobs by the end of 2026 to cut costs. The announcement was made as the company reported a 20% drop in sales between July and September.
