This new technology for nuclear power could help fuel the AI revolution

• Swiss startup Transmutex's technology reduces long-term radioactive waste.
• The technology could further entice AI companies to use nuclear energy to power their data centers.
• "Only nuclear power will be able to supply this massive energy demand," Transmutex's CEO told BI.
