President Donald Trump hosted major AI executives and ordered the U.S. government to stop using the term “artificial intelligence,” replacing it with “super intelligence,” alongside a “Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities” safety pact. The executives’ pact was described as “deeply non-binding” and is voluntary, with “morally binding” offered as an alternative framing by Trump. As a result, the AI industry may see more emphasis on messaging and legitimacy—rather than enforceable safety changes—while underlying tensions around specific AI firms appear largely unchanged.
The Trump administration named Jay Clayton, director of national intelligence, to lead a new federal task force focused on artificial intelligence called the “Super Intelligence Force.” The group was set up in response to a voluntary accord Trump said AI executives signed at the White House last week. It will coordinate federal AI efforts and reach out to consumers, public interest groups, religious organizations, critical infrastructure providers, and AI companies.
Donald Trump announced the creation of a new Super Intelligence Force to coordinate the federal government’s AI “super intelligence” efforts under Jay Clayton and other administration officials. The task force has 120 days to produce a report on AI risks and opportunities. It will set plans for responding to AI-enabled threats while trying to limit overregulation and speed innovation.
President Trump named Jay Clayton, the director of national intelligence, to also lead a newly created “Super Intelligence Force.” The force was announced on Truth Social and includes Clayton plus three other officials. The appointment concentrates AI oversight at the highest intelligence level and adds political and privacy debate around government influence over AI and related data.
