Good news! This is huge! Pardon me I am late with this blog!
What compares to landing the first human on the Moon in 1969 (Apollo Mission) when it comes to machine learning & AI?
"President Trump launched a United States effort to use AI to speed up scientific breakthroughs.
What’s new: The Genesis Mission, established by an executive order, directs the Department of Energy to integrate its 17 national labs and some of the country’s most powerful supercomputers to tackle research on areas that range from energy to medicine. Government researchers will work with private-sector partners, including Anthropic, Nvidia, and OpenAI, to train models on proprietary federal datasets and use AI to generate and run experiments.
How it works: The Energy Department will create an AI platform that provides access to government data and enables federal agencies, research labs, and companies to collaborate in building scientific foundation models and AI agents. It will also organize prize competitions, fellowships, partnerships, and funding opportunities that bring these communities together, coordinating diverse government, academic, and private resources that typically remain separate during peacetime. The project is the “largest marshaling of federal scientific resources since the Apollo program,” ...
Automation: The goal is to train AI models to conceive and conduct scientific research using robotic labs that allow for varying degrees of human involvement.
Focus: The mission identifies six areas of research focus: biotechnology, manufacturing, materials, nuclear fission, quantum information science, and semiconductors.
Goals: The project aims to
(i) boost the pace of scientific discovery,
(ii) protect national security,
(iii) find paths to lower-cost energy, and
(iv) increase the return on government investment for taxpayers.
Funding: No new funding has been allocated so far, as is standard with U.S. executive orders. Agencies will start with existing resources, and Congress may approve additional spending.
Nvidia will build 7 new supercomputers for the government labs, CEO Jensen Huang said, and AMD, Dell, and Nvidia have agreed to build new facilities within the government labs ..."
