#190 Shyam Sankar - Chief Technology Officer of Palantir: The Future of Warfare

It's not just that we want them to come here and be prosperous. As a consequence of them being prosperous, they're creating jobs, they're creating innovation, they're creating economic security. And I think large swaths of the program are used by certain companies to essentially hire cheap labor they probably could have been hiring here and should be hiring here. And so...

Well, fusion, so fission is how do you split the atom? Fission, excuse me. So fission, nuclear fission is how do you split the atom to generate power? Fusion is what our sun does, which is how do you like jam hydrogen molecules together to create energy? Um helium but in doing so it also releases energy huge amounts of energy We don't have commercial grade fusion yet.

That's that's more r d Um, but fission is a tried and true technology all of our all the nuclear that when we think about nuclear we're really talking about fission um, and we are experimenting with what's called small modular reactors. How do you go from what is otherwise a huge $30 billion multi-decade power plant and make these things smaller, more modular?

They're essentially pre-assembled, so you can put them where you need them. They require less infrastructure, substantially less time to build, and the designs are modern in a way that it's default safe. You don't have a risk of a meltdown.

The physics just don't work the same way that these legacy old systems do, which frankly, we've had the technology for a while, but because of our, I mean, understandable fear around it, we backed away from the atom and it became politically, we just started investing in other things.
