Well… hope at least there will be a bit of innovation in the nuclear field to make it more viable.

Also hope that innovation then won’t be used for more AI slop™

I assure you it will be for the worst. Line must go up.

I have so much trust in trickle down science (/s)

There's always the small chance that the power stations are built then meta folds leaving cheap power for everyone else.
Please don't reply telling me how unlikely this is, I need hope.
