EARLY Access [Audio] with Isaiah Taylor - Revolutionizing Nuclear Energy
Added 2025-07-16 14:45:01 +0000 UTCIsaiah Taylor is the audacious visionary behind Valar Atomics, an El Segundo-based startup on a mission to reinvent atomic energy and fuel the future of mankind. Isaiah Taylor dropped out of high school at 16 to start a business and write software for the world's largest hedge fund, but his real obsession, inherited from his physicist great-grandfather, is nuclear energy.
After ten years of obsessive research, Isaiah founded Valar Atomics with a radical plan to reboot the atomic age with mass-manufactured nuclear reactors that can make energy for AI and reverse combustion itself, turning atmospheric CO2 and water into carbon-neutral jet fuel and gasoline cheaper than drilling for oil. In one year, Valar Atomics has already built a 100,000-pound prototype reactor, the first step on their journey to making civilization beautiful again with abundant energy.

Absolutely brilliant. What I take from this is that all things, all tools can be useful or not useful. This young man has a mind that is able to suss those things out. Instead of getting caught up in the bullshit and saying one thing is all bad and one thing is all good, he's able to understand and communicate complex nuance. That is so important in today's society. Especially if you go back and look at the comments from the Governor Newsom interview... It's clear that even in a space as wonderful as this, a community as wonderful as this, we can do so much fucking better. I'm in if you guys are. Let's be better.
