Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia \u2013 US President Donald Trump has announced\nplans to ban the term \u201cartificial intelligence\u201d, or AI, in official\ngovernment documents. He wants it replaced with \u201csuper intelligence\u201d, or\nSI, which he considers more appropriate and accurate.<\/p>\n
In a post on the social media platform Truth Social, Trump said the\nterm AI was inaccurate and would be phased out.<\/p>\n
\u201cBefore long, we will officially BAN the term \u2018AI\/Artificial\nIntelligence\u2019 in all related documents and elsewhere because of its\ninaccuracy,\u201d Trump wrote.<\/p>\n
The move follows an executive order issued on 29 September 2026,\ndirecting all government agencies to begin using \u201cSuper Intelligence\u201d\nand the abbreviation SI in correspondence, on websites and in policy\ndocuments.<\/p>\n
Trump said the name AI gives the impression that the technology is\nnot real or is merely an imitation, even as its capabilities become more\nadvanced and influential. He also questioned why the media had not\nadopted his new term.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen will The Wall Street Journal start changing AI, a very bad and\ninaccurate name, to SI, Super Intelligence, a name almost everyone is\nalready using or will soon be using?\u201d<\/p>\n
Trump\u2019s order is already being implemented by the US government. All\nnew documents concerning AI technology must now use the term \u201csuper\nintelligence\u201d or SI. Government agencies have also begun using Trump\u2019s\nterm on their websites and in official communications.<\/p>\n
The decision has prompted mixed reactions. Some see it as a name\nchange without technical significance, while supporters say it is a way\nto recognise technological progress and underline the United States\u2019\nrole in the field.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/trump-bans-ai-forcing-everyone-to-use-its-replacement-1793325050", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
