Nov. 25 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday to harness artificial intelligence, through what is being called the Genesis Mission, and merge scientific research to "improve our national, economic and health security."

The mission, which will fuse scientific data across the United States, will give the Department of Energy the power to use AI to unite what the Trump administration calls the best minds, most powerful computers and vast scientific data into one research system.

The order also calls for Secretary of Energy Chris Wright, the Assistant to the President for Science and Technology Michael Kratsios and the Special Adviser for AI & Crypto David Sacks to collaborate with academia and private-sector innovators.

"At the direction of President Trump, @ENERGY is leading a historic national effort to revolutionize the application of AI in science and innovation with the Genesis Mission," Wright wrote Monday in a post on X.
