Google made an agreement to buy half of the output of CFS's first fusion plant; about 200MW; sometime 'in the early 2030's.
(Microsoft have an agreement for one of Helion's fusion reactors which is 50MW and supposedly before 2030).
CFS does fairly conventional Tokamaks (albeit with HTS superconducotrs, so vastly smaller than ITER)

'Governments like Spain and others are doing what many had not expected only years ago: Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez is powerfully advocating for the suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement, an extensive trade deal in place since 2000, due to “the catastrophic situation of genocide.”'
'If more such governments were to adopt a similar, uncompromising stance, Israel would be [stopped] from acquiring the .. weapons it uses to carry out .. genocide.'

CADRE: Customizable Assurance of Data Readiness in Privacy-Preserving Federated Learning
Privacy-Preserving Federated Learning (PPFL) is a decentralized machine learning approach where multiple clients train a model collaboratively. PPFL preserves privacy and security of the client's data by not exchanging it. However, ensuring that data at each client is of high quality and ready for federated learning (FL) is a challenge due to restricted data access. In this paper, we introduce CADRE (Customizable Assurance of Data REadiness) for FL, a novel framework that allows users to define…

A New Perspective On AI Safety Through Control Theory Methodologies
While artificial intelligence (AI) is advancing rapidly and mastering increasingly complex problems with astonishing performance, the safety assurance of such systems is a major concern. Particularly in the context of safety-critical, real-world cyber-physical systems, AI promises to achieve a new level of autonomy but is hampered by a lack of safety assurance. While data-driven control takes up recent developments in AI to improve control systems, control theory in general could be leveraged t…
