Following the news of the Three Mile Island restart plans to power Microsoft's AI data centers and the revival of Holtec's Palisades nuclear plant in Michigan, Google CEO Sundar Pichai revealed in an interview with Nikkei Asia in Tokyo on Thursday that the tech giant is exploring the use of nuclear energy as a potential 'green' source to power its data centers.

"For the first time in our history, we have this one piece of underlying technology which cuts across everything we do today," Pichai said of generative AI. He said, "I think the opportunity to do well here is something we are leaning into."

What happened to all those small nuclear plants that were supposed to power the world? Didn't Toshiba have a micro nuclear reactor? (engadget.com)

Using those reactors wouldn't be as big a boondoggle as the other 'green' initiatives, so the ((( politicians ))) aren't interested.
