Nuclear's Evolution

It has been over a decade since Jeopardy! viewers witnessed IBM’s supercomputer, Watson, defeat all-time game show champions Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter. Watson’s victory was regarded as a pivotal moment for Artificial Intelligence (AI), heralding a new era of applications. Since then, the technology that powered Watson’s success has seen significant improvements, especially with the development of graphics processing units (GPUs), specialized electronic circuits that facilitate parallel problem solving and neural network training. So how has this translated to the commercial nuclear power industry? What obstacles are holding the industry back? Join this session to learn about the potential AI applications that could drive the next wave of innovation in nuclear power.
