Summary

Magnets Without Rare Earths: How Physics Informed AI Is Racing to Break China's Critical Minerals Grip Researchers at Ames National Laboratory have published an AI driven roadmap for designing powerful permanent magnets that contain no rare earth elements, fusing first principles physics with high throughput simulation and reasoning based AI to invent materials before they are ever made in a lab. Chris and Laura dig into why China's near total grip on rare earth magnets is a national securi...
