Trump Orders Launch of "Genesis Mission" Initiative to Boost AI Research Revolution

On November 25th, the White House is making efforts to expedite the enhancement of America's research capabilities by applying artificial intelligence. U.S. President Trump signed an executive order on Monday to launch the "Genesis Mission" initiative, instructing the Department of Energy and other research institutions to actively promote the deployment of artificial intelligence. Michael Kratsios, the Chief Technology Officer of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, referred to it as "the largest-scale federal research resource integration since the Apollo program." He stated that this initiative is expected to accelerate research breakthroughs in fields such as medicine, energy production, and engineering. Energy Secretary Wright emphasized that artificial intelligence will be used to analyze the extensive datasets held by its 17 national laboratories and pledged to "significantly accelerate the pace of scientific discovery and innovation." According to the executive order, agencies are required to make datasets more compatible with AI tools like neural networks for reading, and government-held research data and federal computing infrastructure will be opened to university researchers, private companies, and national security professionals.
