Speaking before world leaders at the 81st UN General Assembly, U.S. President Donald Trump declared that official U.S. government documents will no longer refer to "artificial intelligence"โrebranding the technology as "Super Intelligence" (SI)! ๐ก
Rejecting calls for regulatory guardrails and calling existential safety warnings a "hoax," Trump vowed the U.S. will not stifle innovation as it competes with China for dominance over computing power.
