United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority: Artificial Intelligence
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, for what purposes the UK Atomic Energy Authority has used artificial intelligence in the last 12 months.
Answered by Michael Shanks
The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) participates in the Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Collaboration (RAICo) to accelerate deployment of robotics and AI in fusion engineering and nuclear decommissioning. Furthermore, to support the use of AI in fusion research, the first of the UK’s AI Growth Zones is proposed to be located at the headquarters of the UKAEA in Culham, Oxfordshire. AI will be critical in further developing fusion technology by processing complex calculations that will accelerate the R&D that is needed to make fusion a reality.
