Former President Donald Trump announced on his Truth Social platform that he intends to ban the use of the term “artificial intelligence” and replace it with his preferred phrase “super intelligence.” Trump criticized media outlets, including The Wall Street Journal, for continuing to use the traditional terms and declared that the phrase “artificial intelligence” would soon be prohibited. Experts have responded skeptically, noting that “superintelligence” is a technical term referring to intelligence surpassing human capabilities and that simply changing terminology will not alter public understanding or policy regarding AI. This announcement highlights ongoing cultural and political debates surrounding AI terminology and perception.
