Surely you jest? For AI (QC or not) to bring such a result, even with perfect AI, would require delegating governmental controls on a wide scale. Hard research requires hardware, people, money, etc. So does your AI first solve the problem of how governments make decisions? And how do you conclude that an AI would decide that researching fusion is the best choice?
- bbcbasic 10y agoWhy does it have to be a government. We have Google.
- quickben 10y agoThat is a scary thought.

Breeder reactors are supposed to help with that, but they don't exist yet. Renewable options are limited to geothermal and hydroelectric unless you want to invest in a lot of high capacity batteries. AIs will be dependent on electrical energy for survival, what else would they care about?
