US President Trump Declares 'Super Intelligence' as New AI Frontier
On September 29, President Donald Trump issued an executive order stating that humanity has entered a new era of 'Super Intelligence,' urging federal agencies to replace 'artificial intelligence' with the term 'Super Intelligence' and its abbreviation 'SI.' The order claims current systems surpass simple automation and imitation, though the term 'superintelligence' has long been used in academic circles to describe highly advanced, cognitive systems exceeding human capabilities in most domains. Researchers note that the precise definition of superintelligence remains unsettled, especially regarding what constitutes human-level intelligence.
