The objective is to use that platform plus advanced AI to double U.S. research and development productivity within a decade.

The plan calls for access to the largest collection of Federal scientific datasets to train scientific foundation models and deploy AI agents to test hypotheses, automate research workflows, and speed breakthroughs, with strong public–private partnerships to bring in commercial AI infrastructure.

1. American energy dominance: accelerate advanced nuclear, fusion, and grid modernization
2. Advancing discovery science: build the quantum ecosystem to power new discoveries and industries
