Trump mocked for renaming AI to 'super intelligence' at UN
President Donald Trump was widely mocked on social media after telling the UN General Assembly on Tuesday that he was "officially" renaming artificial intelligence to "super intelligence," or SI, claiming the word "artificial" makes intelligence sound fake. Trump said all US documents and hopefully the world's would adopt the new term, while questioning his own authority to make the change. Critics, including journalist Mehdi Hasan and the Republicans Against Trump account, ridiculed the announcement as "beyond parody" and based on a social media poll. In his speech, Trump dismissed warnings about AI risks, rejected globalist control schemes, and said the US leads China in the field. He pledged not to stifle growth but said the Justice Department would monitor developments.
