US Executive Order 14434 on Super Intelligence terminology

WASHINGTON — After privately huddling with nearly 20 tech titans at a White House lunch Tuesday, President Donald Trump continued to push back on calls for new safety regulations for artificial intelligence , saying there was agreement in the room that there should be “tremendous self-regulation” by companies. “There’s a belief that there should be tremendous self-regulation, and we automatically have regulation with the Department of Justice, the FBI, all of that,” said Trump, flanked by tech and government leaders. “But the self-regulation is very important,” he said. Moments later, outside the White House, Trump was asked whether anything would persuade him to back tougher AI guardrails or a slowdown of the industry. “I’m seeing tremendous self-policing, and they understand that they have to self-police,” he told reporters. In recent weeks, tech executives on the AI frontier —...

President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order directing the federal government to replace the term "artificial intelligence" with "Super Intelligence" across the executive branch, cementing a rebranding effort he has championed in recent weeks. Signed after a White House summit with leading technology executives, the order directs federal agencies to use the terms "Super Intelligence" and "SI" in official correspondence, public communications, websites, reports, policy documents and other non-statutory materials. The order also directs agencies to "no longer acknowledge" the terms " artificial intelligence " and "AI," according to the White House. The order further instructs the assistant to the president for science and technology to develop a federal definition of SI and recommend any additional executive actions needed to implement the new terminology.

On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced that several tech firm executives had signed an accord agreeing to self-regulate their artificial intelligence (AI) ventures amid growing concerns about the technology’s rapid expansion. Before the accord was signed, Trump said that “self-regulation is very important” — dismissing calls for formal government regulation, even as industry experts warn that AI’s unfettered expansion could lead to catastrophic outcomes . In remarks to reporters after the accord was signed, Trump touted the unenforceable measure as a positive move. “I think I’m seeing tremendous self-policing. And they understand that they have to self-police,” Trump insisted . But when questioned over a hypothetical scenario about an AI bot going rogue and committing a crime — and who should be held responsible for such an event — Trump ignored the query altogether, instead...
