Abstract
Nuclear power is a highly efficient source of energy production, but its management, presents major technical and safety challenges. The Nuclear Energy Research Center of the University of Kinshasa (C.RE.N.K-UNIKIN) finds itself a crossroads, with opportunities to modernize its management methods through the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) and synthetic intelligence. This article explores how the application of advanced AI technologies, including neural networks and hybrid AI, could improve nuclear power plant management in terms of safety, operational efficiency, and predictive maintenance.
