Trump says US will henceforth call AI 'super intelligence,' rejects global entity for AI oversight

Trump said the new name is more accurate and rejected a global mechanism to control the technology, as more than 20 countries pushed for safety rules.

  • On Tuesday at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, President Donald Trump officially renamed 'Artificial Intelligence' to 'Super Intelligence,' mandating all United States government documents use the new terminology going forward.
  • Trump's rebranding follows recent social media polls asking followers to choose between 'superior,' 'extreme,' and 'supreme' intelligence as alternative names, while he consistently rejected international regulation as a 'globalist' mechanism.
  • Comparing the technology's potential to the Industrial Revolution and the internet, Trump vowed not to 'stifle the growth' of the industry while announcing plans to form an 'AI Force' and name an AI 'Czar.'
  • While it remains unclear if a formal executive order mandates this change, the directive aims to align United States terminology with his administrative branding, separating policy from established global technological standards.
  • The announcement coincided with Trump's address noting his administration's 15 percent cut to the United Nations budget, emphasizing the United States will prioritize technological leadership over restrictive international oversight mechanisms.
