    ChatGPT is, despite popular consensus, not an AI.

    It’s a system that has some notion of context and a huge database of information and is really good at guessing what words to put on screen based on the provided input.

    It can’t think of anything new or novel, but can generate “new” output based on multiple sources of data.

    As such, it will never be able to design a fusion reactor, unless it’s been trained on input from someone who actually did.

    And even then it’s likely to screw it up.
