Trump Asks Followers To Pick A ‘More Elegant’ Name For AI

President Donald Trump has proposed that artificial intelligence be renamed, asking his followers on X to vote on three suggested alternatives: Superior Intelligence, Extreme Intelligence, and Supreme Intelligence. The president argued that the term "Artificial Intelligence" was inaccurate and unappealing, stating that more elegant and precise descriptors for the technology were needed.

Trump encouraged users to vote on which name better represented the rapidly advancing field, describing it as an "ever-growing 'Revolution'." The poll offers users the option to choose Superior Intelligence, Extreme Intelligence, or Supreme Intelligence. Trump has been vocal about AI's growing influence in various sectors, including technology, business, and government.

He recently announced plans to create an "AI Force" and designate an artificial intelligence "Czar" as part of his administration's efforts to promote the technology's development within the United States. Trump defended his stance on AI, warning against efforts to hinder its growth and emphasizing his commitment to supporting the industry.
