""If there were adults in the room and I could trust the federal government to impose the right standards, it wouldn't be such a great concern, but it just doesn't seem feasible,""
""nuclear startup""
President Trump labeled 440 federal properties for possible sale, leased 13.1 million acres of public land for strip mining, and held a fire sale for satellites developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab. The US Department of Energy launched an application permitting companies to apply for access to a maximum of 19 metric tonnes of weapons-grade plutonium. Oklo, a nuclear startup backed and formerly chaired by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, is likely to be among recipients and was chosen for a DOE pilot to accelerate experimental reactor testing and approval. The DOE will announce selected companies on December 31. The move has stirred anxiety across the scientific community, with critics questioning federal standards.
