To The Moon

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday that directs the National Laboratories to build an artificial-intelligence platform to accelerate scientific and engineering discovery.Dubbed the Genesis Mission, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios called it "the largest marshaling of federal scientific resources since the Apollo program.". The Genesis Mission looks to leverage the large scientific datasets scattered throughout government agencies and universities and use them to build AI models that can more rapidly solve the thorniest problems in medicine, energy, and national security, the last being the primary mission of the National Labs. Kratsios claimed that the new initiative will "shorten discovery timelines from years to days or even hours.". The biggest expense will be getting enough computing power to create and run these new scientific AI models. The National Labs are already home to massive supercomputers, including
