Progress Towards Nuclear Fusion, the Everlasting Fuel By Brian Simpson

 Here is some good news in opposition to the climate change alarmist movement against advanced civilisation. It is generally accepted that nuclear fusion, the same process that goes on in the sun would be a real game changer if it could be done on Earth. It would mean limitless energy, with no dangerous radioactive pollutants as in fission reactors. But the technological difficulties in achieving this have been great. One small step has been made though, using advanced AI, to solve the problem of predicting the instabilities, which frustrate the process. It seems, as far as I understand it, that there may be a solution, in theory, to this. If fusion can get up and running, it will take the steam, so to speak, out of solar and wind, which cannot hold a candle to it!

"Scientists have used artificial intelligence to overcome a huge challenge for producing near-limitless clean energy with nuclear fusion.

A team from Princeton University in the US figured out a way to use an AI model to predict and prevent instabilities with plasma during fusion reactions.

Nuclear fusion has been hailed as the "holy grail" of clean energy for its potential to produce vast amounts of energy without requiring any fossil fuels or leaving behind any hazardous waste.

The process mimics the same natural reactions that occur within the Sun, however harnessing nuclear fusion energy has proved immensely difficult.

In 2022, a team from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California achieved the first ever net energy gain with nuclear fusion, meaning they were able to produce more energy than was input for the reaction.

It was only a small amount – roughly enough to boil a kettle – but it represented a major milestone towards achieving it at scale."
