WASHINGTON (Gray DC) - President Donald Trump on Thursday announced new investments in artificial intelligence, aimed at maintaining American leadership in the technology. Trump made the announcement at the U. S. Institute of Peace. The White House called the announcement an historic SI Compute Hub in the Southeast. It will benefit more than 14 institutions in 10 states. “From day one, my administration has taken decisive action to ensure that America continues to dominate the frontiers of science and technology,” Trump said. Separately, in Georgia, universities, industry and the state are announcing a $1 billion investment in scientific endeavors for students and faculty. Trump also awarded top scientific honors to prominent tech industry leaders, including Elon Musk, Michael Dell and Google co-founder Sergey Brin. On artificial intelligence, which the administration calls Super Intelligence, Trump said the industry will continue to self-regulate rather than adhere to new regulations. Before the event, President Trump posted on Truth Social that anyone who refuses to use his new term “super intelligence” is an enemy. Copyright 2026 Gray DC. All rights reserved.

Mud from a fjord shows an Atlantic air pattern brought wetter, colder spells to southern Greenland, a clue to how its ice may fare. Greenland’s ice is shrinking as the planet warms. But in the island’s southwest, rainfall and snowfall have been influenced by the same North Atlantic air-pressure pattern for at least 5,000 years. When that pattern tipped one way, the region turned wetter and colder. The record comes from mud on the floor of a Greenland fjord, and it suggests snowfall, not only temperature, shaped how the area’s ice grew and shrank. It doesn’t yet show how glaciers there will respond to the warming ahead. Johan Faust, a researcher at MARUM, the Center for Marine Environmental Sciences at the University of Bremen in Germany, led the work with colleagues in Germany, Norway, Denmark and Canada. A seesaw in the airThe pattern is called the North Atlantic Oscillation. It’s the difference in air pressure between a low that sits near Iceland and a high near the Azores, and it’s strongest in winter. When that difference is large, the pattern is in its positive phase. Northwestern Europe and southwestern Greenland both get more rain and snow.
