  "account": "Former US President Donald Trump has expressed his desire to replace the term \"artificial intelligence\" with \"superintelligence\". He believes the word \"artificial\" makes the intelligence appear fake. During a recent speech at the United Nations general assembly, Trump stated that future US documents should use the term \"super\" instead of \"artificial\". He also suggested the acronym \"SI\" could be used as a substitute for \"superintelligence\". However, it's unclear if the acronym \"SI\" is already in use by others, such as world's system integrators. Trump also commented on AI regulation, stating that the US rejects any attempt to construct a globalist scheme to control AI. Despite his stance, Trump said the US will closely monitor the technology through the Department of Justice.",
