NVIDIA joins US Government’s Genesis Mission to boost AI infrastructure and R&D investments

NVIDIA will join the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DoE) Genesis Mission as a private industry partner to keep U.S. AI both the leader and the standard in technology around the world. The Genesis Mission, which is part of an Executive Order recently signed by President Trump, aims to redefine American leadership in AI across three key areas: energy, scientific research and national security. NVIDIA will offer its services to the Department to integrate a discovery platform that unites the U.S. government, industry and academia.

DOE officials expect the Genesis Mission to double the productivity and impact of American science and engineering, and deliver decisive breakthroughs to secure American energy dominance, accelerate scientific discovery and strengthen national security.

NVIDIA and the DOE are already achieving groundbreaking results in key areas, including -

·         Open AI science models, such as with NVIDIA Apollo family, to advance weather forecasting, computational fluid dynamics and structural mechanics;

·         AI for optimizing manufacturing and supply chain processes;

·         Robotics, edge AI and autonomous labs, including through the use of high-fidelity simulation and AI-enabled digital twins;

·         Nuclear energy, including fission and fusion research;

·         Quantum computing research, using supercomputers and AI to accelerate the discovery of new algorithms;

·         Biology, materials science and synthetic design for healthcare; and critical-materials breakthroughs.

In addition, NVIDIA announced that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Department to outline priorities of the collaboration in support of accelerating scientific discovery.

The MOU includes, but is not limited to, AI for manufacturing and supply chain, open-source AI, fission energy, robotics, AI-enabled digital twins, fusion energy, quantum computing and science.
