Trump names national intelligence director Jay Clayton to lead a new federal AI task force

The task force will review AI risks and opportunities and report back within 120 days, officials said.

  • On Sunday, President Donald Trump appointed Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton to lead the newly established 'Super Intelligence Force,' a task force coordinating federal efforts to maintain U.S. leadership in artificial intelligence.
  • Trump's directive to rebrand artificial intelligence as 'super intelligence' emphasizes preserving American dominance amid stiff competition from China, the president told industry executives on September 29.
  • Tasked with a 120-day deadline, the group will report directly to President Trump and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles on artificial intelligence risks and opportunities.
  • Clayton will effectively serve as the administration's AI czar, collaborating with Federal Trade Commission Chairman Andrew Ferguson and Pentagon Chief Technology Officer Emil Michael.
  • The administration prioritizes voluntary accords over strict regulation, aiming to foster rapid technological growth while addressing national security concerns without stifling industry competition with China.
