Die weltverändernde „Killer-App“ der KI könnte die Kernfusion sein – Dank der KI, die die Forschung beschleunigt, ist das Ziel unbegrenzter sauberer Energie nun klar am Horizont zu erkennen.

From the article

>Although this is promising, the full potential of AI for fusion is just emerging. There are hundreds of billions of possible fusion reactor designs. How can we know which one is best for commercial fusion power? Finding the answer involves assumptions about the future energy market and construction costs alongside technical analysis. Building a commercial fusion reactor also requires precision engineering and aligned manufacturing. Analyzing a reactor design with traditional models takes months, making an exhaustive search impractical and slow. However, in the past two years, fast AI models are learning from and replacing these traditional models — reducing analysis time from months to hours. With AI, the hunt for the best or most viable commercial fusion reactor is on.

>Ultimately, of course, a digital solution is not enough; we must build a fusion pilot plant and generate electricity. This will require investments in the tens of billions of dollars, which is appropriate for a technology that will dominate the multitrillion-dollar-a-year energy industry. We also need to attract top talent, develop a highly skilled workforce and empower strong international collaboration — all of which will enable us to share and design new experimental approaches and techniques more readily.
