AI-powered autonomous labs are now being launched by the U.S. government. It’s designed to fast-track scientific breakthroughs

As a gamer, I’m actually pretty excited about this Genesis Mission from the DOE. Basically, they’re giving AI researchers access to tons of real-world data from labs – think fusion, biotech, even space stuff! – so they can train some seriously powerful AI. The idea is to use AI to make science move faster – things like letting AI design experiments, run simulations way quicker, and predict results more accurately. And they’re not just going to release it and forget about it. They’re planning to update something called the “American Science and Security Platform” every year to show us how the system’s doing, what people are building with it, and what cool new discoveries are happening. It’s like an open-world science game with real-world impact!

by

Kelli Giddish left the main cast of SVU in 2022 after 12 seasons, but she’s returned for guest appearances several times, including again this year. She told Extra she’s thrilled to be back, saying the show feels fresh even in its 27th season.
