Artificial intelligence must have a new name, says politician who likes renaming bodies of water

Artificial intelligence must have a new name, says politician who likes renaming bodies of water

Former US President Donald Trump has expressed a desire to replace the term "artificial intelligence" with "superintelligence", arguing that the word "artificial" gives the impression that the intelligence is fake. Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly, Trump suggested that the acronym "SI" could replace the lengthy term, though he seemed unaware that the acronym was already in use by system integrators.

The president also stated that the United States rejects any attempts to construct a globalist scheme to control the development and use of artificial intelligence, which he claims is a hoax. Despite this, Trump pledged the country would closely monitor the technology through the Department of Justice.
