Economic: SMRs need autonomy to be viable \$21--28B annual O\&M for datacenter demand alone Per-megawatt staffing costs threaten SMR economics 2. Safety: Human error causes 70--80\% of incidents Training can't overcome fundamental cognitive limits Error probability: 0.001 → 1.0 under accident conditions 3. Technical: Tools now exist to verify hybrid systems HARDENS proved discrete verification is feasible Control theory provides continuous verification tools We can now bridge the gap \textbf{This Research Closes the Gap:} HARDENS (Discrete) + Continuous Verification = Complete Hybrid System \textbf{Vision:} Control engineers generate high-assurance autonomous controllers from procedures. No formal methods PhD required. Mathematical proof included. Deployable on existing industrial hardware. % (End of speaker notes) \end{frame} % Final slide \begin{frame}{} \begin{center} \Huge \textbf{Questions?} \vspace{1cm} \Large Formally Verified Autonomous Hybrid Control \vspace{0.5cm} \normalsize Dane A.
