Trump Rejects Global Controls Over AI, Renames It ‘Super Intelligence’

President Donald Trump announced that the United States is rejecting global efforts to control artificial intelligence, which he is renaming ‘super intelligence.’ He argued that the term ‘artificial’ makes the technology sound fake and that the U.S. government will begin using the new term. Trump compared warnings about AI threatening humanity to claims made by climate activists about global warming, suggesting both come from the same group.
