China AI Science System vs Trump's Genesis Mission: The New Tech Cold War
China launches a super-powered AI science system to counter Donald Trump's Genesis Mission. Explore how SCNet and autonomous AI are reshaping the global tech arms race.
The gloves are off in the race for AI supremacy. Just a month after Donald Trump unveiled his 'Genesis Mission'—an AI Manhattan Project—China has launched its counterstrike: a super-powered AI science system capable of conducting high-level research without human oversight.
Autonomous Research and the China AI Science System
According to the China Science Daily, the system was deployed on December 23, 2025. While the U.S. plan is racing against a 270-day deadline to show progress, China has already scaled its network to serve more than 1,000 institutional users nationwide. This system isn't just a chatbot; it's a fully autonomous research agent.
Inside the SCNet Backbone
The platform taps into China's National Supercomputing Network (SCNet), which links over 30 supercomputing centers. It's designed to break down complex tasks, run simulations, and generate full reports independently. Its reach is already massive:
- Supports nearly 100 scientific workflows.
- Specializes in materials science, biotech, and industrial AI.
- Operates without constant human oversight.
