Yes, they’re planning to use ChatGPT to fill out the documents which show that the nuclear reactor is safe:

The generative AI experiments tap in to Microsoft’s investment in OpenAI, creator of the viral chatbot ChatGPT. For the past six months, a team of Microsoft employees have been training a large language model with U.S. nuclear regulatory and licensing documents, hoping to expedite the paperwork required for such approvals, which can take years and cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

    That’s not what the purpose of the nuclear regulations is. The purpose of the onerous regulations is to prevent construction of nuclear plants and competition with fossil fuels. Regulatory Capture already happened, but it isn’t a fictitious nuclear-cabal. It’s the mining companies and energy companies that have seats on the various public regulatory boards.

        Did their own reasearch. Turns out people are very enthusiastic about the thought of nuclear accidents in their own backyards, and the regulations reflect that. Love this democratization of information. Thanks Internet!
