Trump Declaring Those Using the Term Artificial Intelligence as Enemies Draws Backlash
US President Trump's declaration that those who do not use the term super intelligence instead of artificial intelligence are rivals has drawn criticism on social media and sparked differing approaches in the tech world.
US President Donald Trump's statement on Truth Social mandating the use of his preferred term, super intelligence, instead of artificial intelligence, and declaring those who do otherwise to be enemies of the White House, has caused widespread public resonance.
New Terminology Decision from the White House
US President Donald Trump signed a decree requesting the use of the term super intelligence instead of artificial intelligence in official correspondence and communication to avoid the perception that the technology is fake.
Accordingly, the formation of the Super Intelligence Force within federal agencies was announced, making the use of super intelligence and its abbreviation mandatory in official documents to the extent permitted by law.
Mocked on Social Media
President Trump characterizing individuals who do not adopt the term super intelligence as enemies became the subject of criticism and various posts by politicians and commentators on the platform X.
Figures such as former Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, Thomas Massie, and conservative commentator Matt Walsh reacted to this statement on social media.
Reflections in the Tech World
Leaders of technology companies drew attention by displaying differing attitudes in the face of the White House's new terminology demand.
While SpaceX executive Elon Musk stated that he plans to change the name of his company division, executives of companies such as OpenAI and Nvidia chose to maintain their own terminology preferences or adapt.
