"AI Breakthrough: Unleashing Near-Unlimited Clean Fusion Energy"

Scientists at Princeton University have used artificial intelligence to predict and prevent instabilities in plasma during nuclear fusion reactions, a significant step towards achieving near-limitless clean energy. This breakthrough could lead to grid-scale adoption of nuclear fusion energy, as the AI model can recognize plasma instabilities 300 milliseconds before they occur, allowing for real-time modifications to keep the plasma under control. The research, published in Nature, represents a major milestone in the quest for harnessing nuclear fusion energy for large-scale power generation.
