The United States has always shown keen interest in the nation’s technological advancement; most recently, the National Science Foundation of the U.S. has begun a National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource pilot program with significant backing from the AI market leader Nvidia.
The program’s launch will widen access to the tools to power responsible AI discovery and innovations. The information about the deal came into the limelight on January 24, 2024. The agreement involves ten other federal agencies and other private and nonprofit organizations.
The Director of the National Science Foundation in the United States, Sethuaman Panchanathan, said, “The breadth of partners that have come together for this pilot underscores the urgency of developing a National AI Research Resource for the future of AI in America,” he added. “By investing in AI research through the NAIRR pilot, the United States unleashes discovery and impact and bolsters its global competitiveness.”
In the past few quarters, Nvidia has signed dozens of deals in the AI industry globally and remains one of the biggest manufacturers of AI chips, followed by others.
The global AI market has achieved significant milestones in the past few months, and the introduction of ChatGPT in the market has revolutionized this technological industry.
The director of the Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure at the NSF, Katie Antypas, noted, “The NAIRR is a vision of a national research infrastructure that will provide access to computing, data, models, and software to empower researchers and communities.”
Katie added, “Our primary goals for the NAIRR pilot are to support fundamental AI research and domain-specific research applying AI, reach broader communities, particularly those currently unable to participate in the AI innovation ecosystem, and refine the design for the future full NAIRR.”
