Short article from The Huffington Post:

Trump Media & Technology, the parent company of Truth Social, is set to merge with TAE Technologies, a fusion power company, in an all-stock deal worth more than $6 billion.

The merger would create one of the first publicly traded nuclear fusion companies in the world.

Devin Nunes, a former Republican congressman and the current CEO of Trump Media, will be the co-CEO of the new company, along with TAE Technologies head Michl Binderbauer.

The companies aim to create the first “utility-scale fusion power plant” in 2026.

“Fusion power will be the most dramatic energy breakthrough since the onset of commercial nuclear energy in the 1950s,” Nunes said.

Neat. Did someone build a working prototype or did I sleep through it?

One thing’s for sure, it won’t look like NIF.

By the way I wasn't sure if you were going to publish the physics analysis produced by the chatbot, claiming to show why this won't work. As far as I know it does not reveal anything of a sensitive nature, and results of this sort could easily be generated by other AGI systems. The surprise was that (whether or not it was correct) it produced that answer after only a few questions, from someone familiar in general terms with various aspects of higher mathematics. This reminds me of a story my father told me about von Neumann, evidently he would walk into a room and solve hard problems that had perplexed many people, when he was acting as a consultant to industry or government research labs. I do have the overall impression that the chatbot can do this in some circumstances -- for example its work on 163, and so forth, which still perplexes me in a sense, or this apparent work relating to fundamental physics of plasmas based on Loureiro's work.

This is proof that AI is making us stupid.
