World : Trump’s 'Super Intelligence Force' Could Pose Risks If AI Outpaces SafeguardsÂ

ANKARA, Oct 5 (Bernama-Sputnik/RIA Novosti) -- The establishment of a "Super Intelligence Force" by United States (US) President Donald Trump could lead to additional risks if the development of advanced artificial intelligence systems outpaces the creation of mechanisms to control their use, said Turkish expert Ozlem Tekindor, reported Sputnik/RIA Novosti.

US President Donald Trump has unveiled a new task force dedicated to artificial intelligence, dubbed the "Super Intelligence Force". The task force, headed by Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, will oversee the US's AI development and coordinate government engagement with the public. Additional members include FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson and Undersecretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Emil Michael.

Trump previously announced plans to establish a board to regulate AI safety after industry leaders signed a "morally binding" agreement on AI regulation. The new task force will work with consumers, public interest groups, religious organizations, critical infrastructure providers, and "super intelligence" companies. The announcement comes after industry pressure for tighter regulation, a stance Trump has largely dismissed.

The task force follows the signing of a pact by executives from major tech firms, including OpenAI, Anthropic, SpaceX, and Google, pledging to regulate AI. Trump has also renamed AI as "super intelligence" after previous criticism that the term "artificial intelligence" made the technology sound fake. Some experts argue that the rebranding could cause confusion, as "super intelligence" refers to more advanced systems.
