NSF Plans $100m AI Infrastructure Hubs Program to Boost Science R&D
The program will support up to 10 hubs and require regional partnerships with research institutions, governments and industry.
- On Tuesday, the National Science Foundation announced a $100 million initiative to develop state and regional AI Infrastructure Hubs, supporting up to 10 hubs with one award per state or region.
- The initiative follows a July report by White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios titled "Science: A New Golden Age," which lays a policy foundation for renewing America's research and development enterprise.
- Nvidia is teaming up with the NSF to provide technical guidance and training services, helping institutions build programs that prepare learners to use AI systems, accelerated computing, and data workflows responsibly.
- Each hub will pool resources across states and institutions to unlock compute power, with investments aligned to local job market needs; NSF is actively seeking additional private-sector and philanthropic organizations to support the program.
- Resistance to institutional AI persists; in June, roughly 4,000 people signed a petition against the California State University system's contract with OpenAI, with professor Martha Kenney warning the push is "a step down the path of creating a really different kind of future citizen and worker.
