The ground-breaking capabilities feature a cutting-edge bertha™ Nuclear Large Language Model AI System named in honor of Bertha Lamme – the first woman in the U.S. to receive a mechanical engineering degree and the first female engineer hired by Westinghouse. The bertha System includes tuned and trained models, methods and tools that can be applied to many different use cases.
“Westinghouse has always been at the forefront of innovation in the nuclear industry and now we are excited to pioneer an integrated nuclear AI system for global deployment. Westinghouse will leverage the Hive System to build customized solutions with our clients. Use cases include streamlining preventive plant maintenance and nuclear fuel safety, manufacturing and optimization applications,” said Lou Martinez Sancho, Westinghouse Chief Technology Officer and Executive Vice President of R&D. “Westinghouse has developed a secure and compliant infrastructure in alignment with the highest ethical standards.”
Westinghouse Electric Company is shaping the future of carbon-free energy by providing safe, innovative nuclear and other clean power technologies and services globally. Westinghouse supplied the world’s first commercial pressurized water reactor in 1957 and the company’s technology is the basis for nearly one-half of the world’s operating nuclear plants.
