AI Will Spew Gas Fumes for Years Before the Nuclear Revolution Takes Off
- grajaganDev 2y agoNot if there is another AI Winter. I have seen more than one AI hype cycle and they all end the same way.
- acidburnNSA 2y agoSadly true. The data centers built in the next few years will be powered by natural gas, and some fraction of the hype around nuclear-powered AI may be driven by them attempting to distract us all from the massive increase in fossil usage that they're ordering right now. I'm glad they're saying they want nuclear, and I understand they will use what's available when they need it. For us in nuclear, we have to focus on delivering reactor products that can be built on time and on budget so that AI or any other load can both want us and actually get us.
