Power hungry AI tech companies are driving nuclear fusion development

There have been multiple reports that AI tech companies e.g. invest in new nuclear fusion related companies or alumni found nuclear fusion related companies and so on.

There is a good chance that we will now finally succeed in making nuclear fusion a primary source of our power supply! I bet it will happen in the next 4-8 years.

Generally useful superconductivity may also be on the near horizon! I bet it may happen with the next 3-5 years. 

ML & AI are pushing the frontier of the possible at increasing speed!

Here is one very recent example: Google DeepMind alumni are building tools to accelerate fusion power for the grid "Fusionality is developing control systems and simulation environments to help fusion power startups move faster."
