UNITED NATIONS, Sept 22 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump on Tuesday said US government documents would use “super intelligence” going forward instead of artificial intelligence, and repeated his previous calls about AI warnings being a hoax.
“From this point forward, all of United States documents, and hopefully the world’s will be changed to use the much more accurate term ‘super’ as opposed to artificial. So it’s super intelligence,” Trump said in a UN General Assembly speech.
“I’m not going to stifle growth of something that will be bigger than the industrial revolution,” he said.
Missed opportunity to not call it AMERICAN Intelligence.
As usual, most people will just brush this off as yet more buffoonery from the orange president of Amerikkka, but there’s always an angle at play here. I doubt he just came up with this by himself out of nowhere and then just decided to rename one of the most well known and overused marketing terms on the planet. This whole Trump vs. Silicon Valley tech bros (who suddenly fear monger about AI as a way to ban competing Chinese open source models) thing seems like some sort of elaborate smokescreen to me.
Or I’m giving him too much credit, and it really is just as dumb as it seems.
Yeah nah I think this is just buffoonery
