1st Annual Fusion Summit

The first Microsoft Research Fusion Summit brought together global experts to explore how AI can help unlock the potential of fusion energy. Discover how collaborations with leading institutions can help speed progress toward clean, scalable energy.

While ITER has been using Microsoft tools for years, the two organizations have now begun a formal collaboration that may yield benefits never thought possible.

Here, 2,000 scientists, physicists and workers from more than 30 countries are building a power plant fueled by the same energy that makes the sun shine. Fusion has the potential to be a new source of affordable, carbon-free energy.

Nature published Microsoft’s research detailing WHAM, an AI model that generates video game visuals & controller actions.

Microsoft researchers introduce MatterGen, a model that can discover new materials tailored to specific needs—like efficient solar cells or CO2 recycling—advancing progress beyond trial-and-error experiments.

Property prediction for materials under realistic conditions has been a long-standing challenge within the digital transformation of materials design. MatterSim investigates atomic interactions from the very fundamental principles of quantum mechanics.

Researchers pull back the curtain on MatterGen and MatterSim, the cutting-edge tools reshaping how we design and innovate advanced materials. Explore the journey from concept to creation driving these AI-powered technologies.
