Flying SquidMicrosoft Needs So Much Power to Train AI That It's Considering Small Nuclear Reactors
not_gsaThere is nothing wrong with nuclear power
That list records 8 fatalities related to nuclear power in the US. All time.
Coal is responsible for more than 40. Per year. Just in my city.
Yeah and only 31 died at Chernobyl, arguably the worst and farthest reaching disaster in modern times.
Death counts alone aren’t what you should be solely concerned about.
Almost anything has the potential to negatively affect tens of thousands of people when it’s managed as recklessly and negligently as Chernobyl.
Chernobyl was less a reactor and more a bomb with a very long fuse. Saying we shouldn’t build nuclear reactors today is like saying you shouldn’t take a modern cruise because 14th century sailing ships sank all the time.
OK what about a natural disaster that caused Fukushima?
