Dell CEO Michael Dell announced a $6.25 billion initiative to provide 25 million American children with $250 each to start investment accounts, building on the earlier 'Trump accounts' initiative linked to President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act. This announcement was made during an appearance on Bloomberg The Close.

President Donald Trump has initiated the 'Genesis Mission,' an ambitious plan to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) in scientific research, aiming to address significant challenges in fields such as robotics, biotechnology, and nuclear fusion. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to enhance innovation and efficiency in scientific practices by utilizing federal datasets for AI model training.

A team of researchers has developed a comprehensive open map detailing the age and growth trajectory of 23,000 emerging technologies, focusing on areas such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing. This mapping initiative aims to provide valuable insights for governments, companies, and investors globally.

Dan Wang, a research fellow at the Hoover Institution, highlighted the ongoing competition between the U.S. and China in trade and technology, suggesting that the global economy is becoming increasingly protectionist and fragmented. He emphasized that China is intensifying its focus on artificial intelligence and other technologies, posing a significant challenge to the West.
