Building on our commitment to American scientific discovery
Summary
Anthropic committed $150 million over three years to the Genesis Mission, the US federal initiative for AI-driven scientific discovery. The announcement was made at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy's "Science: A New Golden Age" summit.
Key points
- Claude will be available to more than 15 federal agencies, including NASA, NIH, and NSF.
- Claude, Claude Code, and API credits go to "several hundred" Genesis Mission research projects over three years.
- Planned joint work with agencies on priorities such as fusion energy and quantum computing, plus training and technical support for scientists.
Why it matters
Shows frontier labs competing for government science work with credits and staff, not only model access. Claude Code is part of the offer, which suggests coding agents are now seen as research tools.
