"President Trump's "Genesis Mission" is taking shape with the award of more than $320 million from the Department of Energy (DOE) to advance AI in scientific research. The agency disclosed four initiatives, which it says will begin the process of building an integrated American Science and Security Platform, described as a "discovery engine" to boost the productivity and impact of American science and engineering investments within a decade."
"Of those four initiatives, the American Science Cloud (AmSC) will form the infrastructure for the Genesis Mission, hosting and distributing AI models and scientific data to the broader research community. The Transformational AI Models Consortium (ModCon) will focus on developing self-improving AI models to bolster science and engineering, as well as advancing energy generation. A third initiative will encompass 14 projects covering robotics, automated laboratories, and autonomous control of large-scale experiments in support of the Genesis Mission, with the goal of transforming laboratory environments."
The Department of Energy awarded more than $320 million to advance artificial intelligence for scientific research. Four initiatives will build an integrated American Science and Security Platform described as a "discovery engine" to increase productivity and impact of U.S. science and engineering within a decade. Efforts cover fusion energy, new materials, quantum computing, and drug discovery by linking supercomputers and facilities across 17 National Laboratories with industry and academic resources. The American Science Cloud will host and distribute AI models and data. ModCon will develop self-improving AI models. Additional projects will automate laboratories and curate datasets to validate AI models for scientific applications.
