Trump announces plan to ban 'artificial intelligence' term in federal documents
Donald Trump announced his intention to ban the terms "artificial intelligence" and "AI" from all relevant federal documents and materials if he is elected president. He stated that these terms are "very bad and inaccurate," advocating for their replacement with "super intelligence" or "SI." This directive has reportedly already been implemented within the Navy and Marine Corps, which are mandating the use of "super intelligence" in their communications. Trump's push for this rebranding aims to reshape the technological narrative, emphasizing a more positive and powerful connotation for advanced computing. While many outlets report Trump's direct statements factually, some express skepticism about the practical impact of such a ban on the underlying technology itself. The actual implementation and full scope of such a ban, particularly outside of federal documents, remain subjects of ongoing discussion and interpretation.
