NRC reorganization update: Changes will begin this summer
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is moving forward with its plans to reorganize around three core business lines: new reactors, operating reactors, and nuclear materials and waste. In order to do that, the agency will establish two new offices: the Office of Advanced Reactors (OAR) and the Office of the Chief Nuclear Reactor Inspector (CNRI).

The panelists will discuss a pragmatic roadmap for translating AI research to enterprise-scale deployment in the nuclear industry, addressing the mathematical foundations of AI, stakeholder readiness, model verification and validation, and governance frameworks. The discussion will cover what "operationalizing AI" truly means in a nuclear context from use-case intake and lifecycle controls to agentic operations and auditability — all while enhance safety, reliability, and efficiency across the fleet.
