Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said that as demand for AI data centers and the semiconductor industry grows rapidly in Taiwan, Taiwan will need more energy to support future development. He said directly that “without energy, there is no economic growth,” which has once again raised public attention toward Taiwan’s energy supply and AI infrastructure issues.

U.S. Launches New Strikes on Iran as Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz Rise
The U.S. military said on May 25 that it had launched “self-defense strikes” in southern Iran. The targets included ships that were reportedly trying to lay mines in the Strait of Hormuz and surface-to-air missile sites. The U.S. military stressed that the operation was carried out to protect American forces stationed in the Middle East.
The United States said that two ships belonging to Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had been destroyed. However, the United States and Iran are still continuing nuclear negotiations, and the international community is closely watching whether the latest military action could affect future ceasefire efforts and agreement talks.

Europe has recently been affected by a “heat dome” weather pattern. The United Kingdom, France, and Ireland have all broken historical temperature records for May. Temperatures in London also reached 34.8 degrees Celsius, which is much higher than the city’s usual average temperature for this time of year.
Weather agencies warned that some areas in Spain and France could still see temperatures as high as 38 degrees Celsius in the coming days. Some regions in Italy have also started limiting outdoor working hours, and the situation has once again raised concerns about climate change and extreme heat.
第四則:多讚美能提升產值?畢馬龍效應用正向期待帶領部屬
畢馬龍效應指出,當人們感受到他人的期待與認同,為了獲得鼓勵,會更有動力達成預期表現。在職場中,主管若對下屬抱持正向期望,通常也更願意給予指導與資源支持。
當員工感受到信任與重視,會更積極投入工作以提升效能;反之,缺乏期待也可能讓負面結果成真。管理者應適當展現期許,有助深化互信並帶來團隊正面效益。
Can More Praise Boost Productivity? The Pygmalion Effect Uses Positive Expectations to Lead Teams
The Pygmalion effect suggests that people are more motivated to meet expectations when they feel recognized and supported by others. In the workplace, managers who hold positive expectations for their employees are often more willing to offer guidance and resources.
When employees feel trusted and valued, they are more likely to take initiative and perform better. By contrast, low expectations can make poor outcomes more likely. Managers can help build mutual trust and support better team results by showing appropriate confidence in their employees.
第五則:長期目標老是失敗?專家解析克服拖延技巧
人們常因「當前偏差」而拖延,當立即滿足與長遠計畫衝突,讓人容易因短期誘惑而低估長期目標價值。對抗此偏差的關鍵,是把懊悔轉化為專注長期利益的動機。
專家建議以承諾克服拖延,為理想未來設下具體約定,做法可與親友打賭、預留行事曆時段,並加入明確期限、切合實際的安排與有效違約懲罰,轉化當下努力為持續行動。
Long-Term Goals Never Stick? Experts Share Ways to Fight Procrastination
People often procrastinate because of present bias. When immediate satisfaction conflicts with long-term plans, short-term temptation can make long-term goals feel less important. The key to overcoming this bias is to turn possible regret into motivation to stay focused on long-term benefits.
Experts suggest using commitment to overcome procrastination by making a clear promise to your future self. This could mean making a bet with family or friends, blocking out time on a calendar, setting a clear deadline, creating a realistic plan, and adding a real penalty for breaking the promise, so present effort can become consistent action.
Let’s wrap up today’s episode. We’ve learned about some important events happening around the world.
Jensen Huang said Taiwan will need more energy to support the rapid growth of AI and semiconductors, as global attention remains focused on Taiwan’s AI supply chain.
The U.S. military launched new strikes on southern Iran while nuclear negotiations between the United States and Iran continue under rising regional tensions.
A powerful heat dome is bringing record-breaking temperatures across Europe, raising renewed concerns about climate change and extreme weather.
The Pygmalion effect shows that positive expectations and encouragement from managers can help employees feel more confident, motivated, and willing to perform better at work.
Present bias can lead people to delay important plans, but clear commitments can help turn short-term effort into steady progress.
In the next episode, we will together explore the recent hot news with you in the morning. Don’t forget to come back. Have a nice day and hear me next time. Bye.
