US Justice Department Adopts 'Super Intelligence' Term for AI Following Trump Order
The US Justice Department has directed its employees to use the term "super intelligence" instead of "artificial intelligence" in most communications, including court filings. This follows an executive order from President Donald Trump aiming to better reflect the technology's potential. The memo, issued by acting Deputy Attorney General Trent McCotter, instructs the use of "super intelligence" and "SI" in public documents and policy records. While public concerns about AI safety have grown, Trump has resisted new regulations but indicated the Justice Department would intervene if needed.
