Layer 7: Physical Infrastructure as Oklo

**Oklo** is a nuclear energy startup developing small modular fission reactors (SMRs) designed to provide clean, reliable power for AI datacenters and other energy-intensive applications. The company's Aurora powerhouse design is a compact fast fission reactor that can use recycled nuclear fuel.

Oklo gained significant attention when Sam Altman (CEO of OpenAI) served as chairman of its board, highlighting the direct connection between AI scaling ambitions and clean energy needs. The company went public via SPAC in 2024 and has signed letters of intent with datacenter operators to provide power for AI workloads.

Oklo represents the frontier of the energy layer underpinning the agentic economy — developing next-generation nuclear technology specifically aimed at meeting the enormous, continuous power demands of AI infrastructure.
