Author and clean-energy analyst who writes on solar cost curves.
I always listen to what Carly has to say on anything nuclear (fission or fusion). And lots more good thoughts here. Quoting @contrarianrob88 Thank you @CarlyAnde for this excellent conversation covering nuclear supply chains, microreactors, fusion & fission, grid bottlenecks, key commodities to keep an eye on and much more. https://t.co/VeJEvJSDGB @ErikSTownsend - I hope you enjoy this!

Physicist and science communicator. Writes Backreaction and makes videos explaining new physics and astronomy results, frequently to argue that the headline about them overstates the case.
Physicists should put together a list of mathematically well-defined problems that could advance the field. Such as, eg, what constitutes a low-temperature superconductor, what are the lattice conditions for cold fusion (or why do they not exist), what is a local completion of quantum mechanics, what is the simplest (in terms of computational complexity) way to obtain the masses and coupling constants of the standard model, what is the UV-completion of MOND or why isn't there any, is there any provably UV-finite version of quantum gravity, etc etc Related

AGI energy
Their words
The narrative around why building AGI was a good idea has always been about invention -- "it will cure cancer", "it will solve fusion energy", etc.

Co-founder and CEO of Google DeepMind, and a 2024 Nobel laureate in Chemistry for the protein-structure work behind AlphaFold.
solar energy
Their words
I think fusion and solar are the two that I would bet on. Solar, I mean it's the fusion reactor in the sky of course, and I think really the problem there is batteries and transmission.

Astrophysicist at Barnard College; wrote Black Hole Blues and How the Universe Got Its Spots, and directs sciences at Pioneer Works.
Their words
And that’s what I mean by science is agnostic. Right? It’s the same technology overcoming a critical mass, igniting thermonuclear fusion.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
