"AI Breakthrough: Unlocking Boundless Clean Fusion Energy"
TL;DR
Scientists are using artificial intelligence to overcome instabilities in the complex process of achieving fusion energy, a potential near-limitless source of clean energy. By forecasting potential plasma tearing up to 300 milliseconds in advance, researchers from Princeton University and the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory have made significant progress in using AI to prevent disruptions in fusion reactions. While recent experiments have shown promising results, fusion energy is still a long way from commercial availability, despite its potential to address the climate crisis.
