Isaiah 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.

SRS…….this guys killer !! When’s his IPO coming out ?

JIM NEWMAN

Wish I had question opportunity for Isaiah

Can’t wait to listen to the rest of show very very interesting

HOLY CRAP! Can't wait to watch this one! (and research anything publicly traded for investment). 👍👍👍

What a remarkable guy! Well informed, smart, has wisdom and vision!

What an amazing young man! As an engineer I've been seeing the push for EVs and now AI and the "renewable" energy technology we currently have is just not going to cut it. I've been telling anyone that'll listen that we need more nuclear. I was a kid during 3 mile island and a teenager when Cheenobyl happened... our technology is SO much better and safer, I really hope people embrace this. its definitely going to help us HAVE a future. Great interview Shawn!

I'm curious if Isaiah already has or might consider a strategic relationship with Hsiao Bi-khim and her network.

Fuel for the reactor seems to be long pole at this point. Who is starting the company to refine uranium and manufacturing in the pellets? It sounds like these are the needed industry to support these micro-reactors.

He should be introduced to Vivek in Ohio

Josh Pomponio

Glad to see brite young minds out there with a get it done attitude guys like Isaiah are the leaders that we need

Steven Peters

Thanks Sean for another awesome news break. Young guys amazing!! C Sorry, couldn’t watch Gavin. California speaks for itself.

Anti-Fragile is what we must have —think about it sounds like JSOC to me bro. plan a b and C with d, e, f in the bag.

I actually love the “Idiot Index” makes soooo much sense.

China’s Rectors are still made in China. I have little sympathy for the CCP but a lot for the people. In 2030 the bastards will be gone irradiated to the bone.

Nuclear power is the way.

If Shawn reads the comments I want to educate on the Texas power outage. While the comments about gas in pipes was a problem it was not pipes in the ground. The biggest problem in Texas is deregulation. It causes power to be twice as expensive as the SE and allows companies to get away with things that regulated companies in the SE cannot. I normally dislike regulation but in the case of Texas it was too lax to create ‘competition’. All it lead to was higher prices and power failures. 1. The natural gas plants failed in Texas because they were not properly insulated. The gas in the pipes in plants froze. It was no colder than winter storms in Tennessee where natural gas plants do not freeze because they are insulated properly. Texas has now made sure that issue is solved. 2. Solar and Wind did fail. It was too cloudy for solar and deregulation allowed windmills to be built without proper insulation. In colder climates there are cold weather kits for windmills. Texas did not require, so most windmills froze. That is being addressed. 3. Because of deregulation not enough stand by power was required by regulation. Then several plants were down for maintenance because typically it a low demand period of year. So demand shot up and not enough supply caused blackouts. 4. Lastly Texas is its own grid. It has not been connected to the rest of the country for autonomy. Routes are being built to other states for back power now. Texas is moving rapidly to correct these issues. New back up plants are coming on line along with new plants to power AI. It woke Texas up and they are now moving fast to build out all kinds of powers including nuclear.

Great stuff!
