OpenAI's Sam Altman and Anthropic's Dario Amodei spoke to the United Nations Security Council, calling for international cooperation to manage risks from artificial intelligence.

Iran's military called Trump's remarks a sign of 'strategic desperation.'
In a UN address, President Trump said the US rejects global efforts to regulate AI and announced he wants federal documents to replace 'artificial intelligence' with 'super intelligence,' arguing the word 'artificial' makes it sound fake.

No formal executive order enacting the change has been issued.
In a speech to the UN General Assembly, President Trump rejected any global effort to regulate artificial intelligence, arguing that the lack of strict climate regulation has worked out fine and using that as reasoning against AI oversight.

Airline pilots can earn up to $100,000 in a single month during busy periods, but that pay swings based on seniority, aircraft type, schedule and hourly rate, per the Wall Street Journal. Roughly 4,300 pilots hit the FAA's mandatory retirement age of 65 each year through 2042, often leaving with a combined pension, 401(k) and brokerage assets worth millions, all becoming taxable around the same time.
President Trump used a UN address to declare that the US government will replace the term "artificial intelligence" with "super intelligence" across official documents.
