The Future of Nuclear: Powering the AI Revolution

Today, we explore how nuclear energy is becoming a critical part of the AI revolution. As artificial intelligence models grow larger and more complex, so do the energy demands required to power them. Traditional renewable energy sources, while important, cannot meet the continuous and stable power needs of AI systems. That’s where nuclear energy comes in.

Tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon are leading the way, embracing nuclear power to fuel their massive AI data centers. We dive into Google’s partnership with Kairos Power and its innovative molten salt–cooled nuclear reactors, which promise clean, round-the-clock energy for AI operations.

Nuclear energy is no longer a relic of the past—it’s a vital, scalable solution for the tech-driven future of AI. This episode nicely ties back to previous discussions on the scaling la ...
