Trump announces AI "Super Intelligence Force"

President Trump announced the formation of a "Super Intelligence Force" after meeting with leaders of the country's largest artificial intelligence companies last week.

President Trump announced on Sunday the establishment of a Super Intelligence Force (SIF) following a meeting with leaders of the nation's leading artificial intelligence companies, as calls for regulation of the technology increased. The SIF, directed by Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, aims to maintain America's global leadership in AI and engage with various stakeholders, including consumers, public interest groups, religious organizations, infrastructure providers, and industry leaders.

The formation of the SIF was discussed at the Historic White House Accord on Super Intelligence, where tech giants OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Nvidia, and Elon Musk's SpaceXAI signed voluntary safety standards, described by Trump as "morally binding." The accord includes four layers of controls and audits, such as internal evaluations, external audits, and board of director reviews.

Other key figures in the SIF include Andrew Ferguson, chairman of the Federal Trade Commission, Emil Michael, under secretary for research and engineering and chief technology officer at the Pentagon, and Scott Kupor, director of the Office of Personnel Management.
