Honestly thank god they're vaporware. Somehow I don't think we should have startups building actual nuclear reactors.
500 megawatts? Pshhj that's not even though to power the flux capacitor.
hol up google wants 500MW? that's 1. one regular sized reactor that could be delivered in the same timeframe, and 2. google uses already almost 3GW on average (2023), this is compared to about 2.5GW for ms of which something in the ballpark of 700MW just for ai. they're gonna need much more, like five regular sized reactors if they want to use entire baseload (that's how NPPs work best. the french made load-following NPPs but i guess it'd be harder to make them small) or swing wildly with power consumption to conform to renewables
I got into the wrong business.
didn't we all
i sometimes wonder how i'd make money if i was unencumbered by ethics. i originally thought audiophiles, but then i discovered crypto, holy shit
ai is the same
