Datacenters line up for 750MW of Oklo's nuclear-waste-powered small reactors

Just what we need?

Yaaay, just what I need--a small nuclear reactor disaster in my back yard that forces my family out of our home never to return for a hundred years due to the fallout and contamination. Thanks guys, I guess they wipped the history books about Chernobyl, Three mile island, or Fukushima already.

Japan looks to nuclear energy to power AI-powered datacenter boom

Lesson not learned

Guess the Fukushima disaster wasn't enough to convince them. You mess with AI you wake a sleeping dragon.

Re: fault planes and nuclear power

Sooo let me get this right.....

Japan uses nuclear power plants that produce massive amounts of heat and a large byproduct of radioactive waste (that science can't recycle and can only dump underground), to make massive amounts of electricity for huge heat producing data server farms that also use up massive amounts electricity and water for cooling ? Real efficient.

Meanwhile after running out of space storing radioactive cooling wastewater from the last disaster, Fukushima turns to dumping the tritium laced water out of a pipe a mile or two off the coast back into the ocean. Good job guys! My ocean caught fish taste better now over here in the U.S.
