Nuclear fusion: Scientists say they can use AI to solve a key problem in the quest for clean energy | CNN

'It will be commercially available in 10 years!" - we were told 10 years ago, and 10 years before that.

Don't worry, I saved us years of research and asked chat GPT 3.5 "How can we achieve viable nuclear fusion to solve a key problem in the quest for clean energy?"

Achieving viable nuclear fusion for clean energy involves overcoming technical challenges related to plasma confinement, sustained reactions, and efficient energy extraction. Advances in tokamak and stellarator designs, along with improved superconducting materials, are crucial. International collaborations like ITER aim to address these challenges and pave the way for a sustainable fusion energy future.

We're good now, guys. We just need to overcome these technical challenges and improve superconducting. Problem solved.

Well good, because considering how much energy AI is taking up, they damn well better.

Now, how are they going to solve the problem of how much fresh water AI is taking up?

...... if corporate oil wants them to

That's very interesting. I wonder if active prediction and control of instabilities like that will be necessary, or if fusion reactors can be made more stable. I guess time will tell.
