National Compute is a new enterprise that aggregates computing power resources from many large technology companies and plans to donate 100 million US dollars worth of computing power credits to the Trump administration to help promote scientific discoveries. Two people familiar with the matter revealed that the donation of computing power will be officially announced at an event on Thursday local time. White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Crazios will attend. Computing power resources will be used for the “Genesis Project” at the federal government level. The project aims to accelerate scientific breakthroughs through artificial intelligence. Currently, most of the computing power resources required for cutting-edge research are long-term contracts signed by large computing power purchasers, making it very difficult for small laboratories and enterprises to obtain computing power. This donation will allow Genesis Program researchers to be supported by advanced computing power. National Compute is building a network called the National Computing Power Grid to aggregate the computing power of multiple service providers and open it for use by researchers, enterprises, and government agencies. According to a draft project document, the document likens this computing power grid to a power grid or an interstate highway system, connecting various computing power resources that were originally isolated from each other to the same shared network.
