How America's Energy Department is Building a National Platform for Doing Science with AI

America's Energy Department "wants to build a single national platform for doing science with AI," reports Communications of the ACM:


It is called the Genesis Mission, and the idea is to connect the country's 17 national laboratories, their supercomputers, scientific datasets, and a growing layer of AI models and agents into one system researchers can access. The DOE has taken to calling it 'a national operating system for science.' That means treating compute, data, and AI models the way the country treats power lines and highways, as shared national plumbing everyone else builds on top of.

If it works, Genesis will change how scientific work gets organized, checked, and scaled, with AI helping run the whole pipeline from hypothesis to simulation to experiment and back. The pitch is that this is better understood as infrastructure policy than as another research program. Genesis is now moving from announcement into execution. President Trump signed the executive order launching it in November 2025. This past February, the DOE published 26 science and technology challenges for the program, and in March it opened a $294-million call for research teams in fields like nuclear energy, quantum information science, semiconductors, and biotechnology.

The program is also beginning to reach beyond U.S. borders. In June 2026, Japan moved to become Genesis's first international partner. The two governments plan to invest a combined $1 billion over five years, with Japan contributing $500 million toward joint work in quantum technology, nuclear fusion, and biotechnology. The stated goal is staying ahead of China in the fields where AI is advancing fastest. The open question is whether a federated platform this big can actually work, or whether it ends up as one more expensive coordination exercise.

Blizzard Sues To Take Down Another Private World of Warcraft Server, Project Ascension

"Blizzard Entertainment is continuing its crusade against private World of Warcraft servers," reports the gaming news site Aftermath:

The company filed a new lawsuit on Friday in a California court against the makers of Project Ascension, alleging copyright infringement, Digital Millennium Copyright Act violations, and other claims. Blizzard Entertainment claims that Project Ascension is a "lucrative way to exploit and profit from the popularity of the WoW game experience," according to the complaint, obtained by Aftermath. Blizzard Entertainment's lawyers say in the complaint that Project Ascension purports to have "over a million players." Lawyers write that the developers have "distributed (and are continuing to distribute) millions of pirated copies of Blizzard's copyrighted WoW game software."

They also allege that Project Ascension's servers are hosted on Russian "bulletproof" servers with Aeza Group, a company that was sanctioned in 2025 "for its role in supporting cybercriminal activity targeting victims in the United States and around the world," per a U.S. Department of Treasury press release... Project Ascension lets players combine pieces of World of Warcraft's different classes to build unique characters. It's free-to-play, but players can purchase in-game currency, Donation Points, to buy things in-game, such as cosmetics and experience boosts. Blizzard Entertainment's lawyers assert that Project Ascension has made "millions of dollars from the sale of Donation Points...."

Blizzard Entertainment successfully sued a popular World of Warcraft server called Turtle Wow last year. The project had been running since 2018, taking donations from players for the free-to-play server. Both sides announced in April 2026 that they'd reached a settlement after Blizzard Entertainment was awarded a permanent injunction to shut down Turtle WoW. The details of the settlement were not made public. Turtle WoW was shut down for good shortly after May 15; players gathered online to mourn the end of the server.

Del Toro wint etappe en eindklassement Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

PLATEAU DE SOLAISON (ANP) - Wielrenner Isaac del Toro heeft zondag de Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes gewonnen, voorheen het Critérium du Dauphiné. De 22-jarige Mexicaan van UAE Team Emirates klom zondag van plek 3 naar plek 1 in het algemeen klassement met een overtuigende etappezege op het Plateau de Solaison, een klim van de buitencategorie. De Spanjaard Juan Ayuso werd tweede op 1 minuut van Del Toro, net voor Tobias Johannessen uit Noorwegen.

Del Toro moest 49 seconden goedmaken op Luke Tuckwell, die verrassend aan de leiding ging. Maar de 21-jarige Australiër moest de rest van de klassementsrenners op 9,5 kilometer van de streep laten gaan. Een halve kilometer later viel de Mexicaan aan en niemand kon hem volgen. Ruim achter Del Toro wist Ayuso de overige concurrentie achter zich te laten.

In het eindklassement slaagde Tuckwell er, ondanks dat hij vroeg moest lossen, in de tweede plaats veilig te stellen. Hij beëindigde de Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes met 54 seconden achterstand op Del Toro. Ayuso werd derde op 1.17 minuut van de Mexicaan.

Del Toro volgt zijn ploeggenoot Tadej Pogačar op als winnaar van de etappekoers die tot vorig jaar het Critérium du Dauphiné heette. Het Franse wielertalent Paul Seixas (19) stapte zondag af na een val zaterdag.
