  • Full operation update. Fires start to wind down around the nation. Canada continues to be active.

  • I cover the multiple tree strikes that recently happened in the Pacific Northwest on wildfires. One firefighter was struck in the head, and another was struck while escaping the falling tree, striking their hip.

  • Governments decide to go all in on AI systems while abandoning their workforce. Canada welcomes new AI swarm systems and brings in Microsoft to solve detection problems.

  • Microsoft says Canada and the U.S. can save money with their AI detection systems by replacing humans…

  • California begs insurance companies to come back to the State.

  • They sweeten the deal by allowing them to increase rates up to 200% in some rural communities and seemingly allowing them to use Wild Fire Risk Maps to set rates… Something I predicted two years ago.

  • THIS IS A BIG DEAL.

  • Plus more.
