Request for Information (RFI) on Opportunities and Business Models Regarding AI Supercomputing Capability at Argonne National Laboratory

The Argonne National Laboratory is seeking information from various stakeholders, including academia, industry, and non-profit organizations, regarding opportunities to participate in the development and use of a National Genesis Mission Supercomputing Center of Innovation. The center will include AI supercomputing resources and be located on Argonne property. The laboratory is interested in receiving input on two areas: computing and infrastructure capabilities, and use, co-funding, and partnership interest. The goal is to establish a national resource that can support research, development, demonstration, and mission-focused applications through public-private collaboration. Some key points to consider include: • The center will provide AI supercomputing resources and be located on Argonne property. • Argonne is seeking input on computing and infrastructure capabilities, as well as use, co-funding, and partnership interest. • The laboratory is interested in models that leverage substantial private-sector investment. • The center is expected to support near-term R&D needs of the U.S. government, universities, and industry. • Future phases of the center may incorporate technology demonstrations, test beds, and expanded partner participation.
