Trump Names Jay Clayton as AI Czar to Lead 'Super Intelligence Force'
The force will coordinate with consumers, industry leaders and security officials as Trump says companies agreed to police themselves.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump announced the Super Intelligence Force, appointing Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton to lead coordination between federal agencies and technology companies on artificial intelligence policy.
- The initiative follows a White House summit where industry executives signed a voluntary accord; Trump described the commitments as "morally binding" to ensure the United States continues leading in technology development.
- Clayton will work alongside Federal Trade Commission chairman Andrew Ferguson, Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Emil Michael, and Office of Personnel Management director Scott Kupor, all reporting directly to President Trump and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.
- Executive Order 14434 mandates that agencies replace 'Artificial Intelligence' with 'Super Intelligence' in non-statutory documents, while officials face a 60-day deadline to propose legislative language establishing a formal statutory definition.
- Critics, including former Federal Trade Commission chair Lina Khan, argue the voluntary measures lack binding enforcement power, while online commentators have mocked the branding, comparing it to the 2020 Space Force proposal.
