President Trump announced via Truth Social the formation of a Super Intelligence Force to coordinate federal AI efforts, naming national intelligence director Jay Clayton as chair.

The task force reportedly has 120 days to produce a report on AI risks and opportunities.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The move formalizes Trump's earlier pledge to create an AI Force and appoint an AI czar, following his executive order rebranding artificial intelligence as 'super intelligence.' Clayton's comments to the Wall Street Journal that the biggest risk is 'not being first' suggest the administration may prioritize competitive speed over caution in AI development, which could shape how regulatory and safety questions are addressed in the report due in 120 days.
- Trump has formally established the Super Intelligence Force, led by Jay Clayton.
- Vice chairs include officials from the FTC, Department of War, and OPM.
- The task force has 120 days to deliver a report on AI risks and opportunities.
