Fusion, the process that powers our Sun, could one day provide abundant, clean power. Scientists study it with powerful lasers, but experiments are rare and costly, so experimental parameters must be chosen carefully. The project, led by the University of Rochester in collaboration with Berkeley and an industry partner, will develop an AI assistant that reviews past experiments and facility records to provide researchers with plain-language guidance in real time, helping them learn faster and run more effective experiments to advance fusion research.
