Google DeepMind bringt KI in die nächste Generation der Fusionsenergie – Wir arbeiten mit Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) zusammen, um saubere, sichere und unbegrenzte Fusionsenergie näher an die Realität heranzuführen

From the article 

Today, we’re announcing our research partnership with Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), a global leader in fusion energy. CFS is pioneering a faster path to clean, safe and effectively limitless fusion energy with its compact, powerful tokamak machine called SPARC.

SPARC leverages powerful high-temperature superconducting magnets and aims to be the first magnetic fusion machine in history to generate net fusion energy — more power from fusion than it takes to sustain it. That landmark achievement is known as crossing “breakeven,” and a critical milestone on the path to viable fusion energy.

This partnership builds on our groundbreaking work using AI to successfully control a plasma. With academic partners at the Swiss Plasma Center at EPFL (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne), we showed that deep reinforcement learning can control the magnets of a tokamak to stabilize complex plasma shapes. To cover a wider range of physics, we developed TORAX, a fast and differentiable plasma simulator written in JAX.

Now, we’re bringing that work to CFS to accelerate the timeline to deliver fusion energy to the grid.
