Trump wants to rebrand artificial intelligence. It was almost called these 3 names

President Donald Trump announced plans to rebrand artificial intelligence. It was once associated with terms like "automata studies."

President Donald Trump expressed his desire to rebrand artificial intelligence. He claimed that the term made it sound fake. In 1955, mathematicians and scientists held a conference at Dartmouth College to discuss how to make machines intelligent. Different terms were associated with the field, including cybernetics, automata studies, complex information processing, and the term coined by computer scientist John McCarthy, artificial intelligence.

Trump argued that the use of the word artificial makes intelligence fake, but he insisted it is not fake and is actually amazing. The president announced plans to change the name of artificial intelligence to superintelligence at the United Nations General Assembly. However, it should be noted that the term artificial intelligence is not legally designated and can be changed by the president.
