Trump Launches ’Genesis Mission’ to Accelerate US AI Dominance

President Donald TRUMP will unveil the Genesis Mission at the White House on Monday—a Manhattan Project-scale initiative to cement U.S. leadership in artificial intelligence. The program mobilizes national labs, federal agencies, and private sector partners to fast-track breakthroughs in machine learning, neural networks, and quantum computing.

Officials frame the mission as both an economic imperative and national security priority. By aligning defense, academic, and corporate research efforts, the administration aims to outpace China and the EU in developing strategic AI applications. The initiative will prioritize dual-use technologies with military and commercial potential.

Unlike previous piecemeal funding, Genesis creates a centralized R&D pipeline spanning 14 critical fields—from neuromorphic chips to cryptographic verification. Early focus areas include autonomous systems for DoD and predictive algorithms for Wall Street.
