The nuclear power sector, often criticized for its slow pace of adoption, could be experiencing a significant shift. Atomic Canyon has received a $7 million funding boost, signaling a growing belief in the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline operations within nuclear facilities. The company’s focus lies in tackling one critical challenge: managing the overwhelming amount of documentation required for running a nuclear power plant. 18-month-old Atomic Canyon, founded by Trey Lauderdale, saw an opportunity where AI could significantly impact efficiency within this field. Nuclear power plants generate massive amounts of data across a variety of areas from technical specifications and maintenance logs to safety procedures and regulatory compliance records.
