Amazon looks to advanced nuclear reactors to meet climate goals
Tech companies have inked a slew of nuclear energy deals this year.
Their billions of dollars in profit could've started this process decades ago. They're just doing it now because they need to keep pace with AI data processing demands. It's a net-zero strategy.
Incredible. How can companies have that much power? Buying a nuclear reactor as if it were a birthday gift.
When can I expect to get depleted uranium rods to be delivered to my home?
It’s good that they’re doing this even if it’s for their own gain
How much is the taxpayer going to pitch in here?
These corpos are on media blitz tho, verge getting their 20k for this one lol
Well when the LLM craze collapses in the nearish future we'll have a bunch more nuclear power in the 2030’s. So that's good I guess?
And we will have even more energy when this internet fad dies off
I'm looking at black holes to power my energy needs!
First things first...I will create a black hole here on Earth. This is very complicated and I will have to invent a ton of technology to get that done. That's as far as I can think of right now. Whenever we have the black hole, we'll have a meeting to figure out the rest of the plan.
Figure out how to deal with nuclear waste and maybe.
I thought it's already figured out, recycle it like in France.
Not figured out here in the states. They just turn the site into a nuke waste dump.
Amazon prime uranium deliveries.
*Not available in Iran
There are actually relatively easy (easy compared to building a nuclear reactor) ways to deal with the waste that involve mixing it with concrete and glass so it can be safely stored in a way that won't impact the surrounding environment. Kyle Hill has a great video about this on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4aUODXeAM-k
I thought that the solution there has always been to bury it in desert bunkers for 10,000 years.
If we're still around by the time that becomes too cumbersome we are hopefully space-faring and then yeeting it into Jupiter becomes an option.
