Rescale Wins DOE Genesis Mission Funding for Agentic AI at 3 National Labs

3 articles · Updated · Scientific Computing World · Jul 29

Summary

  • Rescale secured US Department of Energy Genesis Mission funding to apply agentic AI to national laboratory codes for industry use.
  • The project links Rescale with Lawrence Berkeley, Lawrence Livermore and Oak Ridge National Laboratories, bringing the effort into three major DOE lab environments.
  • Agentic AI is being targeted at established national-lab codes, signaling a push to speed how US industry uses high-performance computing and simulation tools.
  • The award places Rescale inside a federal initiative aimed at expanding AI-driven scientific computing across government research infrastructure.
