The US just offered to spend $68 million on AI research

The U.S. Department of Energy has announced a significant investment of $68 million for AI research projects. This funding will support 43 awards across 11 multi-institution projects over the next three years, with a portion contingent on future congressional appropriations. The department emphasizes that this initiative is a top priority, aiming to enhance machine learning and deep learning applications in various scientific fields.

The projects funded will focus on automating laboratory workflows and developing energy-efficient AI algorithms. While AI shows promise in improving areas like emergency room triage, concerns about misinformation and environmental impact persist. The funding aligns with Executive Order 14110, which aims to ensure the safe and trustworthy development of AI technologies.
