  "account": "California Governor Gavin Newsom has taken a dig at US President Donald Trump's decision to rename artificial intelligence as \"Super Intelligence\". In a post on X, Newsom jokingly declared that the technology would henceforth be referred to as \"Artificial Intelligence\" and \"AI\" in the state of California.
