Julian Hyde (@julianhyde) reported from Berkeley, CaliforniaThe power went out this morning. There’s construction on our block, and we didn’t know whether that was the cause. Within ten minutes, @PGE4Me sent a text saying how many customers were affected and an estimate for when power would be restored. Good job, PG&E!
-
East Bay G (@BaronBlitz) reported from El Sobrante, CaliforniaWell my Uverse DSL and TV is still down a day later. @ATT is working on it I hope. I can thank @PGE4Me for this dabacle. We need cities, counties, or the State to takeover the power companies. **** private power companies.

KickAaaS AI (@KickAaasAi) reportedWhen California’s largest utility provider had customers waiting over an hour on hold during outages, something had to change. For Pacific Gas and Electric (@PGE4Me), extreme weather events meant massive call surges — millions of inbound calls, arriving at the most stressful moments for customers. The result was predictable: Long wait times. Frustrated callers. Overloaded contact centers. That’s where @polyaivoice stepped in. Instead of forcing customers through rigid IVR menus, PG&E deployed a conversational voice AI that could actually help — in real time. What changed? • Customers received real-time outage updates without waiting on hold • Calls were handled naturally in English and Spanish • Safety-critical scenarios stayed compliant with strict utility regulations • Human agents were freed up to handle complex, high-impact issues And the results were measurable: → 35,000+ labor hours saved → 67% call containment rate, outperforming legacy IVR → 22% increase in CSAT during outage calls → 25% reduction in customer effort No IVR rip-and-replace. No shortcuts on safety. Just a smarter voice experience, operating at massive scale. The takeaway: No matter how large-scale or complex a problem may seem, there’s often a solution hiding in agentic AI — if it’s designed with empathy, safety, and scale in mind. Question for operators & builders: What’s the most “too big to fix” customer experience problem you’re facing today?

T™️ 🇨🇦….. 🇺🇸 (@CaliNuckian) reported@OfTheBraveUSA @PGE4Me still out here massively overcharging to keep the lights on.

@Marina (@megjones1111869) reported@PGE_BayArea @PGE4Me The automated texts you send out-may want to activate the areas re “site feedback” versus locking them.

JLahl (@JenniferLahl) reportedJust got an alert from @PGE4Me that our neighborhood has as an outage - within seconds @Tesla alerts me that my home is fully powered. 💥 Take that Gavin.

Big Bad (@Big_Bad42) reportedIn March 2026, the courts just finalized the sabotage. The Court of Appeal upheld NEM 3.0, cementing a 75% cut to solar credits. At the same time, @PGE4Me is rolling out their new monthly $24 "Base Services Charge." It’s a literal utility tax on energy independence.

Catherine Shiang (@cathshiang) reportedThe demurrer was denied by the Superior Court judge showing the claims against LADWP has legal basis. What are these claims? Who pays if plaintiffs win? These claims go to negligence in equipment maintenance (something @PGE4Me is at fault for for the city wide Christmas city wide blackout) of water management system From reservoir, water pressure to prioritizing cost cutting over maintenance. Failure to maintain and properly manage their electrical infrastructure, sub transmission lines causing the fire. Not turning off the power. And concealing this fact. And inverse condemnation. Meaning no need to prove fault, only a showing LADWP equipment caused the fire. 👉Of course any damages by LADWP, owned the city of LA, will be borne by their insurance company, and then, sadly from rate hikes to customers, and city taxpayers. So, ironically, customers and taxpayers end up paying for this lawsuit. There should be, instead, personal liability to those decision makers. Up in San Francisco, the current CEO of PGE Sameer Singh should be personally liabile for the Christmas 2025 Blackout. After all his entire career at PG&E was in equipment maintenance and risk prior to his ascension to CEO. He had personal knowledge of the equipment, the sub stations. In Washington DC, similarly the CEO of the 240 million tons of raw sewage spill, caused by the Potomac Interceptor collapse was a known maintenance issue. The CEO of @dcwater David Gadis knew of this interceptor issue. He said flippantly "The scale is one through five. Five being an emergency. A three is fair. So a 3.5, it was fair," he said. "It happened to break on us before we were able to get to it." Either his crew needs a new measuring scale or they measured wrong. The bottom line is these CEOs have direct knowledge and should be personally on the hook whether civil damages and/or criminal negligence.

Janus (@UtahOligarch) reported@USNavyResearch @PGE4Me Earth is our cell and we only have one. You can’t just shoot rockets into space @NASA with bad electrophysics and assume the universe won’t fight back on our planetary cancer. Either you had this math all along, or you never did. Either way you’ve been lying to humanity.
