Argonne’s AI transformers to improve nuclear reactor simulations

Microsoft’s $60 Million Genesis Mission Commitment Puts Nuclear AI at the Center

Last week, Microsoft announced a $60 million, multiyear commitment to the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Genesis Mission, the national initiative to embed artificial intelligence (AI) across the country’s 17 national laboratories. The company’s stated goal, echoing DOE’s own framing, is to help “double the productivity and impact of American research and innovation within a decade.” […] The post Microsoft’s $60 Million Genesis Mission Commitment…

AI Transformers Improve Nuclear Reactor Simulations

Newswise — If you’ve used a large language model such as ChatGPT, you’ve interacted with a transformer, the neural network architecture that powers many generative artificial intelligence (AI) models.Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory are adapting this architecture to model complex physical systems. They’re using AI transformers to accelerate and improve fluid-dynamics simulations for advanced nuclea…

Government gives Canadian Strategic Missions Corporation (CSMC) $4.5M for Micro-Nuclear Technology in Canada’s Arctic

COMMENT  CSMC are very adept at getting government funding (no private investors) for an idea. The company CEO has a background in real estate and “making deals.” They already had at least $3.1 million in public funds before this latest grant, which leaves them about …. $1 billion or so short of building a reactor, if indeed they know how to do that.  CSMC awarded $4.5 million through the Government of Canada to accelerate micro-nuclear technolo…
