AI in Nuclear Energy Council

What happens when AI isn’t just a tool, but a co-creator of safety? The answer lies not in code, but in confidence. Faith Reyes, a PhD student at MIT, didn’t just use a software framework to manage 18 neutrino detectors — she built it to replace her own repetitive work. As the system scaled, so did her trust in her own judgment. This mirrors a critical truth in nuclear energy: AI’s role in reactor monitoring and safety isn’t about intelligence alone — it’s about ownership. When operators co-develop the AI that monitors their reactors, they don’t just trust the system — they feel responsible for it. That’s the real safety case.
