Fusion was never viable. The things that NIF puts out is a pretty, sanitized excuse for general public for nuclear weapons development (not complaining about it)
I’m not sure how a tokomak or laser confinement reactor translates to nuclear weapons. Those are completely different processes for creating fusion reactions. A fusion bomb literally just explodes a fission bomb next to the fusion fuel to get it started. No lasers or magnetic fields required, because the fuel in that case is compressed by a carefully engineered blast wave.
