President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order Monday aimed at fast-tracking scientific discovery through artificial intelligence, directing the Energy Department and its national labs to develop an integrated AI platform using both current and future supercomputing resources.
According to CBS News, the initiative, dubbed the “Genesis Mission,” seeks to speed research across federal, academic, and private-sector datasets in science, engineering, energy, and healthcare.
The White House hopes the program will accelerate breakthroughs in areas like disease therapies, fusion energy, and advanced materials.
Michael Krastios, the president’s science adviser, called the mission “the largest marshaling of federal scientific resources since the Apollo program.”
He said AI will be used to automate experiment design, run complex simulations, and generate predictive models, potentially shortening discovery timelines from years to days or even hours.
“By fusing massive federal data sets, advanced supercomputing capabilities, and world-leading scientific facilities, the Genesis mission will empower scientists to test bolder hypotheses and discover breakthroughs currently unreachable,” Krastios said.
