Plasma disruptions in tokamaks—sudden instabilities that can quench fusion reactions—pose a major challenge to sustainable energy. When magnetic fields collapse, they unleash damaging forces on reactor walls. AI-driven models are now being trained to detect subtle precursors, predicting quenches before they cascade. Machine intelligence learns from vast plasma data. It could become the guardian of fusion stability, edging humanity closer to safe, controlled star power on Earth. Let’s explore the
