The convergence of AI and nuclear energy brings unique risks, especially when AI moves from a passive tool to an autonomous participant.

Facebook parent Meta is seeking developers that can bring nuclear reactors online starting in the early 2030s to support data centers and communities around them. Why it matters: Meta is joining Amazon,

Nuclear-power enthusiasts are more optimistic about the future of the technology. They think power demand will continue to increase, thanks in part to AI. And once online, new nuclear reactors will be used to displace older fossil-fuel plants, including those built to address nearer-term electricity needs.

AI's energy consumption is growing, but demand for more power is also coming from manufacturing and electric cars.

As demand for clean electricity to run data centers increases, operators are turning to nuclear energy. But the path to power has a few roadblocks.

A collaboration between startup Atomic Canyon and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory allowed construction of a sentence-embedding model using 53 million pages of Nuclear Regulatory Commission documents

FN Media Group News Commentary - Industry insiders are saying that the next big artificial intelligence (AI) opportunity could be Nuclear Power. As AI continues to drive unprecedented advancements across industries,

Surging demand for AI has sparked a race to secure supplies of nuclear power. WSJ’s Peter Landers traveled to the Fukushima exclusion zone in Japan to explore the challenges of atomic energy's comeback.

Nuclear energy could be the long-term solution for the energy demands of AI. In the short-term, though, AI companies may turn to oil and gas.

Shares of Palantir Technologies have advanced 290% year to date as unrelenting demand for its artificial intelligence (AI) platform has led to a series of strong financial results. While impressive, Palantir is only the second-best performing member of the S&P 500 ( ^GSPC 0.56%) this year.

This spring kicked off the best stretch for America’s nuclear industry in decades. It started in April, when, for the first time since 1990, the United States added nuclear capacity for the second year in a row.

That’s the message from Westinghouse Electric Co., the Cranberry Township-based firm that last year became the first company to design and build a new domestic nuclear reactor — actually two right next to each other – in more than 30 years with its AP1000 reactors at Plant Vogtle in Georgia.
