Microsoft is actively exploring the potential of artificial intelligence to revolutionize fusion energy research. This initiative aims to accelerate the development of a clean, scalable, and virtually limitless energy source. The first Microsoft Research Fusion Summit recently convened global experts to discuss and explore how AI can play a pivotal role in unlocking the secrets of fusion power. This summit fostered collaborations with leading institutions and researchers, with the ultimate goal of expediting progress toward practical fusion energy generation.
The summit showcased ongoing efforts to apply AI in various aspects of fusion research. Experts from the DIII-D National Fusion Program, North America's largest fusion facility, demonstrated how AI is already being used to advance reactor design and operations. These applications include using AI for active plasma control to prevent disruptive instabilities, implementing AI-controlled trajectories to avoid tearing modes, and utilizing machine learning-derived density limits for safer, high-density operations.
Microsoft believes that AI can significantly shorten the timeline for realizing nuclear fusion as a viable energy source. This advancement, in turn, could provide the immense power required to fuel the growing demands of AI itself. Ashley Llorens, Corporate Vice President and Managing Director of Microsoft Research Accelerator, envisions a self-reinforcing system where AI drives sustainability, including the development of fusion energy. The challenge now lies in harnessing the combined power of AI and high-performance computing, along with international collaboration, to model and optimize future fusion reactor designs.
