Trump announces $2.4B in tech pledges from Nvidia, OpenAI, Anthropic and others for federal Genesis Mission
President Trump announced October 8 that major tech companies have pledged $2.4 billion in computing power and commitments to support the Genesis Mission, the federal effort to use AI to accelerate scientific research across 14 agencies spanning energy, health and space.
Nvidia is contributing $1 billion — the largest single pledge — while AMD pledged $500 million, OpenAI $200 million, and Anthropic and Google $150 million each. AMP and Emerald AI committed $100 million apiece, and AWS, Armada, Crusoe and Micron are each contributing $50 million.
The announcement came at the White House "Science: A New Golden Age" summit, where Trump also doubled down on rebranding AI as "Super Intelligence," writing that the White House considers anyone using the term "Artificial Intelligence" the enemy. Anthropic separately detailed its three-year commitment of Claude, Claude Code and API credits to several hundred Genesis Mission research projects.
