US President Donald Trump has proposed to replace the term "artificial intelligence" (AI) with "super intelligence" (SI) in government communications and policy documents. This change is aimed at conveying the perceived capabilities and potential of the technology more accurately. Trump signed an executive order on September 29 directing federal agencies to use SI instead of AI wherever legally possible.
Notably, Trump has branded anyone who continues using the term AI as "THE ENEMY!" The administration has already begun implementing the change, with several federal agencies adopting SI, including the US Center for AI Standards and Innovation, which has been renamed the Center for Advancing Innovation and Standards for Super Intelligence (CAISSI).
Tech leaders such as Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Jensen Huang have shown support for the term change. However, the move could potentially create confusion as "superintelligence" is already a term in the tech industry referring to future AI systems that could outperform humans across various intellectual tasks. The new terminology might dilute its meaning and create challenges in distinguishing current AI tools from hypothetical advanced systems.
Additionally, some existing laws and congressional discussions on AI use the term "artificial intelligence," which may complicate the administration's efforts to update terminology through executive orders.
