Trump signs order to integrate supercomputers and data assets in order to create \u2018AI experimentation platform\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n United States President Donald Trump has unveiled a national initiative to mobilise artificial intelligence (AI) for accelerating scientific breakthroughs.<\/p>\n Trump signed an executive order on Monday to establish \u201cThe Genesis Mission\u201d, the latest iteration of his administration\u2019s aggressive strategy for spurring AI development through deregulation, infrastructure investment and public-private collaboration.<\/p>\n list of 4 items<\/span>end of list<\/span><\/section>\n Trump\u2019s order directs US Energy Secretary Chris Wright to unite scientists and technologies at the country\u2019s 17 national laboratories into \u201cone cooperative system for research\u201d.<\/p>\n Under the initiative, US supercomputers and data resources will be integrated to create a \u201cclosed-loop AI experimentation platform\u201d, according to the order.<\/p>\n The White House, which likened the initiative to the Apollo programme that put the first man on the moon, said priority areas of focus would include the \u201cgreatest scientific challenges of our time,\u201d such as nuclear fusion, semiconductors, critical materials and space exploration.<\/p>\n Michael Kratsios, the White House\u2019s top science adviser, said the\u00a0initiative took a \u201crevolutionary approach\u201d to scientific research.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Genesis Mission connects world-class scientific data with the most advanced American AI to unlock breakthroughs in medicine, energy, materials science, and beyond,\u201d Kratsios said.<\/p>\n Chipmaker Nvidia and AI startup Anthropic said on Monday that they were partnering with the Trump administration on the initiative.<\/p>\n \u201cUniting the National Labs, USG, industry, and academia, this effort will connect America\u2019s leading supercomputers, AI systems, and next-generation quantum machines into the most complex scientific instrument ever built \u2013 accelerating breakthroughs in energy, discovery, and national security,\u201d Nvidia said in a social media post, referring to the US government (USG).<\/p>\n Since re-entering the White House, Trump has made cutting red tape to fast-track the development of AI a key plank of his economic agenda.<\/p>\n Last week, Trump called on the US Congress to pass legislation to create a national standard for AI, while criticising state governments over their laws regulating the emerging technology.<\/p>\n \u201cOverregulation by the States is threatening to undermine this Growth Engine,\u201d Trump said on his platform, Truth Social.<\/p>\n \u201cWe MUST have one Federal Standard instead of a patchwork of 50 State Regulatory Regimes.\u201d<\/p>\n Benjamin H Bratton, an AI expert at the University of California, San Diego, welcomed the initiative as a move towards the \u201cdiffusion\u201d of the technology.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is less important \u2018whose\u2019 AI people have access to than they have universal access at all,\u201d Bratton told Al Jazeera.<\/p>\n \u201cMost attempts to throttle AI in the USA and EU [European Union] come from cultural, economic and political incumbents protecting their turf.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThose locked out of positions of artificially scarce social agency have the most to gain,\u201d Bratton added. \u201cI support diffusion, not any particular administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Trump signs order to integrate supercomputers and data assets in order to create \u2018AI experimentation platform\u201d.
