At its AI Science Summit ("Science: A New Golden Age") on October 8, the White House announced $2.4 billion in compute and AI credits from 11 companies for the Genesis Mission Consortium, which supports work at more than 15 federal agencies: $1 billion from Nvidia, $500 million from AMD, $200 million from OpenAI, $150 million each from Anthropic and Google, $100 million each from AMP and Emerald AI, and $50 million each from AWS, Armada, Crusoe and Micron, Nextgov reports. The administration billed the event as a $6 billion push. The Pentagon announced up to $350 million for quantum computing. The Next Web notes it's unclear how the pledged computing time will actually be set aside for scientists.
