Elon Musk says SpaceXAI will become SpaceXSI as Trump pushes to use "Super Intelligence" over AI

Elon Musk has announced he plans to rename SpaceXAI to SpaceXSI. The decision comes after President Trump issued an executive order urging the use of the term "Super Intelligence," or SI, instead of the current term "artificial intelligence." Musk echoed this sentiment on his X platform, stating that SI is a more accurate representation of the technology.

This move follows in the footsteps of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who has recently been referring to AI as "super intelligence." However, Zuckerberg has yet to officially announce the change. As SpaceX acquired xAI in February and rebranded it as Space XAI in July, renaming it again to SpaceXSI could potentially cause confusion among the public.

The executive order, signed by President Trump, instructs US government departments and agencies to use the term SI when referring to the technology in official correspondence, websites, reports, and other forms of communication. Trump argued that the word "artificial" gives AI an inaccurate impression of being fake.

Despite Musk's announcement, it remains to be seen if SpaceX will indeed change its name to SpaceXSI. The company's website and official X account have not yet reflected the change. It is also unlikely that this will be the first time Musk has made a proclamation that ultimately goes unfulfilled, such as his previous promise to cage fight with Mark Zuckerberg.
