south korea claim they made a room temp super conductor (if true will change the world)

Insane discovery by some Korean researchers, a superconductor that can work at room temp and pressure

It's still not confirmed whether it is superconductivity or something else iirc but the experiment has been replicated on video by a team in China.

If thats true is Nikola Tesla level discovery, how many things they can do without the overheat

LK 99 being a real super conductor that could work at suitable temps/pressure would be a massive breakthrough.

Though I am skeptical due to it not being too complex to reproduce.

Skeptical of the heat capacity transition and most other groups did not obtain the same resistivity transition. Also I work in a similar class of materials alongside colleagues who do SC work and they say there's a lot of frauds in this field since it's so hot, search up Ranga Dias.

I never trust discoveries like this right away.. they never actually live up to the hype or have some huge issue

I don’t really understand the significance of it so could u explain why

from the wikipedia article:

Unlike an ordinary metallic conductor, whose resistance decreases gradually as its temperature is lowered, even down to near absolute zero, a superconductor has a characteristic critical temperature below which the resistance drops abruptly to zero. An electric current through a loop of superconducting wire can persist indefinitely with no power source.

so i’m guessing you can get a lot more power than with normal wires

It would literally change anything. I've read somewhere that only in the US they could shutdown 3 nuclear powerplants simply by "saving" the energy that is usually lost when transmitting through wire. Sensors like Hall-Sensord (which are actually used in some keyboards) would be wayoe precise (which wouldnt make any keyboard greater but yeah, you get the point). Think of the dynamo used on your bicycle to power the lights - even more effective. And although I am not really convinced of this one, you would be able to store power in a loop of wire, effectively making batteries which save the energy from the electric net when there is just too much power being produced unnecessary as you can just leave it cycling in the loop without it slowly fading away.
= utopia

1/3rd of the total energy produced in the world simply gets wasted during transportation in electric lines.

Depending on how malleable and ductile this material can be made, your computers can possibly run much cooler effectively eliminating 50% of the problems with making a better CPU/GPU.

Modern-day VLSI is stuck because of 2 major problems, the Quantum Tunneling effect and thermals. Superconductors solve 50% of this problem.

Regardless, Superconductors have some really cool properties, not allowing magnetic fields to pass through and stuff like quantum levitation. Its pretty cool stuff.
