Trump says US will henceforth call AI 'super intelligence'

US President Donald Trump has announced that the term "artificial intelligence" will be replaced with "super intelligence" in all US government documents. Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly, Trump stated that the change is intended to make the term more accurate, suggesting that "artificial" implies something fake. According to Trump, "From this point forward, all of United States documents, and hopefully the world's will be changed to use the much more accurate term 'super' as opposed to artificial. So it's super intelligence."

Trump also expressed his enthusiasm for the development of super intelligence, stating that he will not stifle its growth, which he believes will be "bigger than the industrial revolution." The Hill and The Korea Times also reported that Trump dismissed warnings about AI, calling them a "hoax."

The renaming of artificial intelligence to super intelligence was announced during Trump's address to the UN General Assembly, although it is unclear if the change will be adopted globally. According to Techmeme, Trump claimed that the word "artificial" makes intelligence sound fake, which is why the US is "officially" renaming AI to "super intelligence."
