Trump Administration Rebrands AI as ‘Super Intelligence’ in US Government
AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication
On September 29, 2026, President Donald Trump signed an executive order renaming “Artificial Intelligence” and “AI” to “Super Intelligence” and “SI” across all federal communications. The directive requires every executive department to replace the terms in official correspondence, public statements, websites, reports, and policy documents, while excluding statutory materials, existing contracts, and congressional laws. The administration argues that “artificial” misrepresents the technology’s advanced capabilities. The change was announced during a White House luncheon attended by major tech leaders, who signed a voluntary framework on the new terminology.

- · government frames emerging technologies, potentially influencing public perception and policy priorities.
