Scientists say they can use AI to solve a key problem in the quest for near-limitless clean energy
- Researchers from Princeton University have successfully used AI to forecast and prevent instabilities in fusion reactions in real-time.
- Fusion energy, the process that powers the sun, has the potential to be a game-changing solution to the climate crisis, but many obstacles remain, including instabilities in the complex process.
- The AI controller made real-time changes to tokamak parameters during a fusion experiment, demonstrating promising progress in controlling fusion reactions.

Engineers use AI to wrangle fusion power for the grid
In the blink of an eye, the unruly, superheated plasma that drives a fusion reaction can lose its stability and escape the strong magnetic fields confining it within the donut-shaped fusion reactor. These getaways frequently spell the end of the reaction, posing a core challenge to developing fusion as a non-polluting, virtually limitless energy source.
