Twenty-four organizations have either expressed interest in or are already participating in projects related to the Genesis Mission, a national effort announced by the White House in November that will use artificial intelligence (AI) to make advancements in science, energy and national security.
Among the organizations that have signed agreements are Anthropic, Amazon Web Services, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia, OpenAI and xAI, the Department of Energy (DOE) said in a Thursday (Dec. 18) press release.
Michael Kratsios, assistant to the president and director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), said in the release that these research partnerships are “only the beginning” and that the Genesis Mission aims to include companies, universities, non-profits and federal agencies.
“Harnessing cutting-edge AI for science will dramatically increase the productivity of American scientists and researchers,” Kratsios said. “The Genesis Mission will help America’s scientists automate experiment design, accelerate simulations and generate predictive models that will lead to breakthroughs in energy, manufacturing, drug discovery and beyond.”
DOE Under Secretary for Science and Genesis Mission Director Dr. Darío Gill said in the release: “These agreements help advance President Trump’s Executive Order to build the national AI platform for scientific discovery and uplift the entire U.S. R&D ecosystem.”
President Donald Trump signed the executive order creating the Genesis Mission in November, directing the DOE to build a unified AI platform that knits together federal scientific data, national laboratory supercomputers and private cloud capacity.

“The Genesis Mission will accelerate scientific discovery, strengthen national security, secure energy dominance and multiply the return on taxpayer investment in research and development,” the order said.
Anthropic said in a Nov. 24 post on X: “By combining DOE’s unmatched scientific assets with our frontier AI capabilities, we’ll support American energy dominance as well as advance and accelerate scientific productivity.”
Amazon Web Services said in a Thursday blog post: “At AWS, we’re proud to power this transformation from day one — not with promises of what might be possible, but with infrastructure that turns ambitious vision into operational reality today.”
Google DeepMind said in a Thursday blog post: “Google DeepMind will provide an accelerated access program for scientists at all 17 DOE National Laboratories to our frontier AI for Science models and agentic tools, starting today with AI co-scientist on Google Cloud.”
OpenAI said in a Thursday blog post: “This MOU [memorandum of understanding] builds on OpenAI’s existing work with DOE’s national laboratories, where we’ve already deployed frontier models in real research environments and worked directly with scientists on high-impact problems.”
Nvidia said in a Thursday blog post: “Nvidia will offer its services to the [Department of Energy] to integrate a discovery platform that unites the U.S. government, industry and academia.”
