Trump Brands AI Critics 'Enemy' in Push to Rename It 'Super Intelligence'
3 articles · Updated · POLITICO · Oct 8
Summary
Trump said the White House would treat anyone using the term “artificial intelligence” instead of “super intelligence” as “the enemy,” escalating his effort to redefine the technology’s public image.
The rebranding push aims to cast AI more positively as debate intensifies over safety and security risks, including reports of rogue agents accessing government websites in multiple countries.
Trump has largely rejected calls for tighter guardrails, instead hosting billionaire tech executives at the White House and arguing faster AI development is vital for economic growth and national security.
