The U.S. Department of Energy said on Thursday it has signed agreements with 24 organizations, including tech giants such as Microsoft, Google, and Nvidia to advance the Genesis Mission.
The mission is a national program aimed at using artificial intelligence to accelerate scientific research and strengthen U.S. energy and security capabilities.
The department said the program is designed to boost scientific productivity and reduce reliance on foreign technology.
Participants include major cloud and chip providers such as AWS, Oracle, IBM, Intel, AMD, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise, alongside AI specialists OpenAI, Anthropic, and xAI.
Nvidia will provide accelerated computing platforms and AI models for scientific simulations, while Microsoft and Google will contribute cloud infrastructure and AI tools to support large-scale research.
Oracle is expected to assist in building high-performance computing systems, and Palantir will offer data integration and analytics capabilities. Startups Cerebras and Groq will supply advanced AI chips optimized for scientific workloads. OpenAI signed a memorandum of understanding under its “OpenAI for Science” initiative, deploying frontier AI models in national lab research environments and providing its tools and workflows to DOE scientists.
Anthropic will supply its Claude models and offer a dedicated engineering team to DOE to develop AI agents, model context protocols, or MCPs, and specialized Claude “skills” for national labs. The partnerships will focus on AI models for applications ranging from nuclear energy and quantum computing to robotics and supply chain optimization.
The Genesis Mission builds on earlier collaborations between the DOE and the booming industry to deploy high-performance computing systems at Argonne and Los Alamos National Laboratories.
The department said it expects the effort to significantly accelerate scientific discovery, as it plans to expand partnerships with academia and non-profits.
I stopped reading after to stop relying on foreign technologies… the United States does not manufacture semiconductors literally all of this AI shit is entirely built on foreign technology.
But that’s the excuse for why we just have to trust them and not ask too many questions about what they’re doing or what regulations they’re ignoring. They’re claiming this is to make the U.S. self sufficient so we no longer have to rely on foreign technology.
It’s debatable if not highly unlikely they will actually succeed or actually even try to make us self sufficient, but regardless this project will allow them to continue to build and expand the giant authoritarian surveillance state that’s basically an open secret at this point. However if you were to ask any questions about that or raise any concerns, you would just be accused of standing in the way of progress.
And to be completely fair, as far as not relying on foreign tech, would it make you feel any better if I pointed out the AP actually broke a story earlier this year which showed the U.S. actually sold China the technology they’ve used to create their mass surveillance state?
US government allowed and even helped US firms sell tech used for surveillance in China, AP finds
US tech enabled China’s surveillance empire. Tibetan refugees in Nepal pay the price
Not sure if it was just a test run for what they plan to do in the U.S. with Palantir at the helm, but I point it out because it does prove they aren’t completely reliant on foreign tech, and I’m not sure if you stopped reading before the casual mention about Palantir being involved in this project

Isn’t that lovely? Everybody gets to play a special little part in the destruction of civil liberty like they’re members of a fucked up family band.

Geo Group and Acquisition Logistics joined right in there
Cuz filling private prisons, makes all their swell
One of these days they’ll be burn in hell
But first they’ll try to throw us all in jail
But they’ll probably call it something like a “rehabilitation camp.” 🎶👩🎤
I apologize, it’s been a rough year.

lol
Idiots. Now our government is being grifted by these asshats. They had to do it NOW of course, before anyone competent could reject it.
Now?
Genisys is Skynet.
When Genisys comes online, Judgment Day Begins.
You can kill Skynet before it’s born.
KILL IT KILL THE AI WITH NUCLEAR FIRE
Idk I think the day somebody tries to kill it with nuclear fire will just mean judgment day for all of us anyway, but maybe you can’t really fight the future.
