WASHINGTON\u2014President Trump today issued an Executive Order<\/a> to launch the Genesis Mission, a historic national effort led by the Department of Energy. The Genesis Mission will transform American science and innovation through the power of artificial intelligence (AI), strengthening the nation\u2019s technological leadership and global competitiveness.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The ambitious mission will harness the current AI and advanced computing revolution to double the productivity and impact of American science and engineering within a decade. It will deliver decisive breakthroughs to secure American energy dominance, accelerate scientific discovery, and strengthen national security.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThroughout history, from the Manhattan Project to the Apollo mission, our nation\u2019s brightest minds and industries have answered the call when their nation needed them,\u201d said U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright. \u201cToday, the United States is calling on them once again. Under President Trump\u2019s leadership, the Genesis Mission will unleash the full power of our National Laboratories, supercomputers, and data resources to ensure that America is the global leader in artificial intelligence and to usher in a new golden era of American discovery.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The announcement builds on President Trump\u2019s Executive Order Removing Barriers to American Leadership In Artificial Intelligence<\/a> and advances his America\u2019s AI Action Plan<\/a> released earlier this year\u2014a directive to remove barriers to innovation, reduce dependence on foreign adversaries, and unleash the full strength of America\u2019s scientific enterprise.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Secretary Wright has designated Under Secretary for Science Dar\u00edo Gil to lead the initiative. The Genesis Mission will mobilize the Department of Energy\u2019s 17 National Laboratories, industry, and academia to build an integrated discovery platform.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The platform will connect the world\u2019s best supercomputers, AI systems, and next-generation quantum systems with the most advanced scientific instruments in the nation. Once complete, the platform will be the world\u2019s most complex and powerful scientific instrument ever built. It will draw on the expertise of roughly 40,000 DOE scientists, engineers, and technical staff, alongside private sector innovators, to ensure that the United States leads and builds the technologies that will define the future.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The\u202fGenesis Mission will focus on addressing three key challenges of national importance:\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

American energy dominance: The Genesis Mission will accelerate advanced nuclear, fusion, and grid modernization using AI to provide affordable, reliable, and secure energy for Americans. Advancing discovery science: Through DOE\u2019s investment and collaboration with industry, America is building the quantum ecosystem that will power discoveries\u2014and industries\u2014for decades to come.Ensuring national security: DOE will create advanced AI technologies for national security missions, deploy systems to ensure the safety and reliability of the U.S. nuclear stockpile, and accelerate the development of defense-ready materials.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Additional quotes for media:\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Under Secretary for Science and Genesis Mission Director, Dr. Dar\u00edo Gil: \u201cThe Genesis Mission marks a defining moment for the next era of American science. We are linking the nation\u2019s most advanced facilities, data, and computing into one closed-loop system to create a scientific instrument for the ages, an engine for discovery that doubles R&D productivity and solves challenges once thought impossible.\u201d\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

Administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration, Brandon Williams: \u201cThe Genesis Mission represents the next great chapter and an unparallelled opportunity for America\u2019s scientific and national security leadership. \u201cBuilding on decades of innovation and collaboration across our national laboratories, NNSA will leverage AI, quantum computing, and advanced data analytics that will strengthen our deterrents and ensure the United States maintains an unmatched strategic edge over our adversaries. Under President Trump\u2019s leadership, this mission will embody the very best of American ingenuity, turning science and innovation into security.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chair of the National Laboratory Directors\u2019 Council, Dr. John Wagner: \u201cDOE\u2019s National Laboratories are engines of discovery that keep the United States competitive and secure. The Genesis Mission unlocks the full potential of these institutions by giving our scientists and engineers tools to work at the speed of innovation. Our laboratories have always risen to meet the nation\u2019s greatest challenges, and this initiative ensures we continue that legacy in the age of artificial intelligence.\u201d\u202f<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WASHINGTON\u2014President Trump today issued an Executive Order to launch the Genesis Mission, a historic national effort led by…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":35410,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[23,3,21,19,22,20,25,24],"class_list":["post-313240","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-states","tag-america","tag-news","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-usa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/313240","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=313240"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/313240\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/35410"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=313240"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=313240"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=313240"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
