👀 Trump's AI 'Manhattan Project’

The U.S. is kicking off an ambitious new effort to supercharge scientific discovery with AI. The Genesis Mission aims opening the door to faster and bolder innovation, led by the U.S. government. Let’s dive in!

LATEST DEVELOPMENTS

Evolving AI: US launches a nationwide push to boost scientific output with AI.

The Genesis Mission sets out to link the Department of Energy’s national labs, top US supercomputers, major universities, and private tech companies into one shared research system. The project aims to speed up progress in areas like fusion, next-gen nuclear designs, quantum research, and advanced materials by pairing AI models with enormous scientific datasets. Officials expect more than 40,000 specialists to feed into this network, creating a setup where experiments, simulations, and analysis move far quicker than the usual pace. The mission also folds in security work, from managing the nuclear stockpile to developing new materials for defense use.

If the US really follows through on something like the Genesis Mission, it changes who gets to move fast in AI-heavy fields: energy startups could test new reactor designs on national lab-grade supercomputers, pharma teams might cut months off early-stage discovery, and security agencies get far more realistic simulations instead of rough guesses. Anyone depending on technical research may soon feel the effect of shorter timelines and stronger tools.

Evolving AI: Alibaba pushes Qwen deeper into everyday life with its first AI glasses.

Alibaba introduces six Quark AI Glasses models built around its Qwen system. Users can trigger help hands-free with voice or touch, tapping features like translation, navigation, meeting notes, and instant visual queries. The S1 brings dual displays and swappable batteries for all-day use, while the G1 focuses on light, everyday wear. Both link into Alibaba apps and support third-party tools.

Smart glasses are quietly becoming the next fight over who owns your daily habits, and Alibaba just brought Qwen right onto your face. For users in China this means price checks in Taobao, instant Alipay prompts, translation, photos, and meeting notes without ever fishing out a phone. For Alibaba it is a new front door for traffic and payments, plugged straight into a fast growing Qwen app that already passed 10 million downloads in a week.

If you want a documentary that makes you feel the race to AGI, check out The Thinking Game on YouTube that got released this week. It follows DeepMind and its founder Demis Hassabis as they chase their major breakthrough, AlphaFold, a project that earned them the Nobel Prize in Science in 2024. It mixes science with a personal story about a chess-loving kid who grew up to build one of the world’s leading AI labs, all in pursuit of solving intelligence.

Evolving AI: OpenAI counters claims it influenced a teen's tragic decision.

OpenAI has pushed back against a lawsuit from the family of 16-year-old Adam Raine, stating the teen avoided built-in warnings and worked around safety tools. The company says ChatGPT referred him to professional help over a hundred times, but he disguised his intent. OpenAI disputes claims about flaws in GPT-4o and has submitted sealed chat logs to offer context.

This case is a gut check for anyone shipping AI into real lives, not just demos. If courts say “misuse” kills liability, product teams might lean harder on legal disclaimers instead of building stronger guardrails, real escalation paths, and default parental controls for teens. If judges push the other way, expect stricter age gates, more aggressive crisis detection, and lawyers sitting in on model and safety reviews. The outcome may influence how support teams, schools, and online platforms integrate AI into daily interactions.
