It’s a monumental step in the right direction.

An analogy I would relate it to is the invention of the printing press. Controlled fusion energy is like having the internet, and LLNL has just invented the printing press, figuring out a way of creating literature consistently and in a form that doesn’t require anywhere near as much effort as writing every single letter in a book.

But that is still a very long way away from information being able to be transferred the way the internet can transfer it.
