US Treasury pushes global partners to rename AI as ‘super intelligence’
Washington is negotiating with shareholders of the International Monetary Fund to use the new term in a statement being drafted by the International Monetary and Financial Committee.
US Treasury Secretary Erin Browne is advocating for global partners to adopt the term "super intelligence" in lieu of "artificial intelligence" when discussing the rapidly evolving technology. The directive comes following President Donald Trump's orders for US government agencies to replace "AI" with "SI" in official communications.
Browne explained that the United States, currently holding the Group of 20 presidency, aims for the new term to be internationally recognized. She emphasized that "SI" more accurately represents the potential impact of artificial intelligence on global growth and productivity. While negotiations are ongoing, Browne declined to comment on potential consequences if Washington declines to endorse a consensus statement, suggesting a fallback plan involving a chair's statement.
