Laser ICF is not ever going to be applicable to power generation. NIF is first and foremost a weapons research facility, and the primary reason NIF exists is to investigate plasma in regimes similar to the core of a detonating H-Bomb. The ignition results are nice and might provide some useful new experimental data on the behavior of ignited plasmas, but ultimately this has very little bearing on the future of fusion energy. In order to get useful energy out of laser confinement, we would need to do about 1 shot every second. Currently, the hohlraum (fuel pellet) is made of diamond and gold, machined to sub-picometer precision. Beyond the fact that it takes much, MUCH longer to charge up the systems for a shot, you'd need to find a way to manufacture these extremely expensive pellets en masse, load them into the chamber, fire, capture the energy, and also design your chamber to not fall apart after a few dozen shots from ablation.

You should be getting very excited when any of the magnetic fusion approaches achieve ignition, because unlike ICF they are much more straightforward to scale and capture energy from.
