An interesting and inspiring message from U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission about their view on the AI technologies application in the Nuclear industry:
"Licensing applications that include the use of AI technologies may be submitted to the NRC for review and approval in the next five years"
"The deployment of AI technologies by the nuclear industry is on the horizon. The NRC anticipates that within the next five years an existing licensee, new, or advanced nuclear technology applicant may employ AI in such a manner that it requires NRC regulatory consideration or oversight. The NRC needs to continue to be effective and efficient as it conducts its safety and security mission"

This information was presented today at the session of interesting webinar series of INDEX (International Conference on Nuclear Digital Experience), organized by Sfen - Société française d'énergie nucléaire (French Nuclear Energy Society), dedicated to digital transformation in the nuclear industry.
Similar development was presented by IAEA and EC for safety-related industries and applications.
