The \u2064announcement, made alongside leaders \u200cfrom Oracle,\u2062 OpenAI, and SoftBank \u2062in the White \u2064House, highlighted \u200dplans for data centers and the creation of over 100,000 jobs in\u2063 Texas.<\/p>\n<p>During the event, \u200bOracle&#8217;s Chief\u2062 Technology Officer, Larry Ellison, discussed the potential for using AI to <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">develop personalized cancer vaccines quickly<\/a>, \u200cemphasizing \u2063early detection and tailored treatments. Trump positioned Stargate as the &#8220;greatest AI infrastructure\u200d project&#8221; in history, expressing a desire\u200d to keep technological advancements within the U.S. \u200bThe participating tech companies are initially investing $100 billion each, with a goal to reach\u200b $500 \u200dbillion over four years, and future \u2063opportunities \u200cfor external\u200d investment. <\/p>\n<p>Trump contrasted\u200b his \u2064initiative with former President Biden\u2019s earlier cancer cure promises, suggesting that \u2063Biden&#8217;s efforts had\u2064 limited results. The Stargate project aims to leverage advancements\u200b in AI to significantly impact healthcare and\u200c technological growth.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-body body-md bdr-top-black pt-30\">\n<div class=\"row justify-content-center\">\n<div class=\"col-12\">\n<figure class=\"article-thumbnail mb-30 mb-sm-60\">\n<div class=\"article-thumbnail-caption d-flex align-items-center justify-content-md-end label-xs mt-15\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-camera me-10\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Image Credit<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.c-span.org\/event\/white-house-event\/president-trump-delivers-remarks\/430338\">C-SPAN<\/a>       <\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-share text-center article-share-simple\">\n<h5 class=\"label-sm mb-10\">Share<\/h5>\n<ul class=\"article-share-list list-unstyled m-0 p-0\">\n<li class=\"article-share-facebook m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/22\/trump-announces-500b-ai-infrastructure-plan-that-could-help-cure-cancer\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Facebook<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-twitter m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Trump%20Announces%20%24500B%20AI%20Infrastructure%20Plan%20That%20Could%20Help%20Cure%20Cancer&amp;url=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/22\/trump-announces-500b-ai-infrastructure-plan-that-could-help-cure-cancer\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Twitter<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-truth-social m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/share?title=Trump%20Announces%20%24500B%20AI%20Infrastructure%20Plan%20That%20Could%20Help%20Cure%20Cancer&amp;url=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/22\/trump-announces-500b-ai-infrastructure-plan-that-could-help-cure-cancer\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" fill=\"currentColor\" style=\"width:36px;height:auto;\" viewbox=\"0 0 92 93\"><path d=\"M69.444 55.716H56.772v10.37h12.672zM64.487 37.795V27.32H38.666v38.664h13.18v-28.19zM21.05 27.321h12.653v10.471H21.051z\" https:><\/path><\/svg>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Truth Social<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-link m-0\">       <button data-clipboard-text=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/22\/trump-announces-500b-ai-infrastructure-plan-that-could-help-cure-cancer\/\" data-tooltip-content=\"Copied!\" class=\"clip tooltip\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-link-variant\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Copy Article Link<\/span>       <\/button>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-email m-0\">       <a href=\"mailto:?subject=Trump%20Announces%20%24500B%20AI%20Infrastructure%20Plan%20That%20Could%20Help%20Cure%20Cancer&amp;body=Trump%20called%20the%20initiative%20the%20'greatest%20AI%20infrastructure%20project%20by%20far%20in%20history.'%20https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/01\/22\/trump-announces-500b-ai-infrastructure-plan-that-could-help-cure-cancer\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-email\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article via Email<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-email m-0\"><span class=\"printfriendly pf-button  pf-alignleft\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/thefederalist.com\/#\" rel=\"nofollow\" onclick=\"window.print();

Using AI you can do <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/dave-coulier-sets-the-record-straight-after-full-house-co-star-john-stamos-cancer-gesture-causes-controversy\/\" title=\"Dave Coulier Sets the Record Straight After &#039;Full-House&#039; Co-Star John Stamos&#039; Cancer Gesture Causes Controversy\">early cancer detection<\/a> with a blood test and once we gene sequence that cancer tumor, you can then vaccinate the person, design a vaccine for every individual person to vaccinate them against that cancer,&rdquo; Ellison said during the press conference. &ldquo;You can make that mRNA vaccine robotically using AI in about 48 hours. So imagine early cancer detection, the development of a cancer vaccine for your particular cancer aimed at you, and have that vaccine available in 48 hours. This is the promise of AI and the promise of the future.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Curing cancer was a promise former President Joe Biden made during the 2020 campaign and while in office, but little-to-no progress was made. In fact, Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/energycommerce.house.gov\/posts\/chair-rodgers-biden-s-moon-shot-initiative-to-cure-cancer-falls-flat-as-he-celebrates-law-that-stifles-medical-innovation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">backed<\/a> efforts to make medical innovation more difficult.<\/p>\n<p>Trump called the initiative the &ldquo;greatest AI infrastructure project by far in history,&rdquo; adding, &ldquo;It will ensure the future of technology. What we want to do, we want to keep it in this country &mdash; China&rsquo;s a competitor, others are a competitor.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The three companies will put up $100 billion each initially into Stargate, with the goal of meeting $500 billion over four years. Eventually, the project will also open to outside investors as well.<\/p>\n<p>When asked by Trump what he thought the project could do for healthcare, Altman said new technologies could allow diseases to be cured at a much more rapid rate, saying it will be &ldquo;among the most important things this technology does.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>On his first day in office, Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/technology\/artificial-intelligence\/trump-revokes-biden-executive-order-addressing-ai-risks-2025-01-21\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">repealed<\/a> an executive order signed by Biden that restricted AI, though when asked by a reporter Tuesday about another Biden order opening up federal lands for building data centers, Trump said he is unlikely to repeal it.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;No, I wouldn&rsquo;t do that. That sounds to me like it&rsquo;s something that I would like,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;I&rsquo;d like to see federal lands opened up for data centers. I think they&rsquo;re going to be very important.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">      Breccan F.
