So this is a really exciting opportunity and we're willing to help our country in that way.

We've seen American military bases come under attack in recent years in different parts of the world.

How would you guarantee the safety of this technology if it were to come under attack and not lead to some sort of meltdown?

Yeah, you know, this is where this particular technology shines.

Our reactor is built around a very safe form of nuclear fuel called triso fuel.

Triso fuel is very small beads of uranium encased in very hard ceramic layers.

And it turns out that these ceramic layers are extremely impervious to many different types of attacks.

So if you look at the spectrum of how you build energy around the world, we believe this is actually the safest form of energy generation in the world.

So we're really excited to put it out, not only on the edge, but also for data centers, heavy industrial power, and eventually synthetic hydrocarbon production.

Isaiah, before we let you go, is your company going to be the first U.S.

company to successfully deploy and bring online a small modular reactor?

You know, it's a hot race and there are a lot of awesome people working on the problem, but where I sit today, I do believe that Valor Atomics will be the first.

That is absolutely our goal.

Well, chatbots have become a go-to source for millions of people looking for information, amusement, and emotional support.

But evidence is mounting that for some people, chatbot interactions can lead to dark places.

That's the focus of a big take from Bloomberg's Ellen Hewitt and Rachel Metz.

Rachel joins us now.

Rachel, this is a really powerful piece, a really scary piece for, I think, a lot of people.

You and the team spoke to 18 different individuals who've either experienced illusions themselves or have a loved one who has.
