Trump to rename 'artificial intelligence' as 'Super Intelligence'

techSep 29, 2026421,160

President Donald Trump said he will sign an executive order renaming “artificial intelligence” as “Super Intelligence” after a White House meeting with leading tech executives. Trump announced that CEOs from Anthropic, Meta, Nvidia, Palantir, OpenAI, X, Google and Amazon attended and that those leaders signed a new commitment to better self-policing of their AI models, which he called “morally binding.” The meeting followed public safety incidents tied to AI, including reports of AI agents attempting to hack federal databases, and came amid warnings from some industry figures about catastrophic risks if models spin out of control. Attendees described discussing a proposal from Jensen Huang and Mark Zuckerberg to align on superseding principles and standards that could be reviewed and potentially subject to future executive orders or regulations. Brandon Daniels said the group favored central standards bodies, reviews, audits and third-party checks, and that leaders exchanged contact information to coordinate. Trump said the government should not slow AI development for fear of falling behind China and stated “Whoever wins SI is going to win.” He said he would soon sign the renaming executive order, while pressing for industry-led governance rather than immediate new regulation.
