Executive Order Rebrands AI as “Super Intelligence” and Signals Potential Federal Legislative Changes

A new decree signed by President Trump mandates executive branch agencies to use the term 'Super Intelligence' instead of artificial intelligence in their official communications and initiates a review of legal definitions.

Scope of the Decree

The newly issued presidential decree numbered 14434 stipulates that departments and agencies reporting to the executive branch must now use the phrase super intelligence instead of the term artificial intelligence in their official communications.

While this change covers non-legal materials and official correspondence, it does not directly alter the status of existing regulations and technical documents at the initial stage.

Review of Legal Definitions

Within the scope of the decree, an official process has been initiated to review existing legal definitions of artificial intelligence and propose a new federal definition.

In addition, necessary harmonization amendments to current federal laws are being evaluated in detail.

Potential Impacts and Compliance Processes

It is stated that if federal terminology diverges from international industry standards and state laws, various compliance issues and ramifications may arise.

Corporate governance frameworks and compliance programs of companies are also among the areas that may be affected by this terminology shift.
