President Donald Trump tells the UN General Assembly that the United States will use the term “super intelligence” instead of “artificial intelligence” in official communications, saying the change is “more accurate” and that “artificial” makes the concept sound “fake.” Several outlets report he makes the remarks during a speech on Tuesday and frames the move as part of broader renaming efforts.
Outlets also agree that Trump rejects international oversight proposals for AI and dismisses warnings from AI safety advocates. He characterizes calls for regulation or supervision as a “globalist scheme,” and he draws a comparison to climate-change warnings, which he says have been validated by scientific consensus. The Verge adds that, in the same speech, Trump makes additional political remarks, while PBS and Korea Times focus more directly on the AI rebranding and his rejection of global oversight. NDTV similarly emphasizes his argument that the warnings resemble climate-change debates.
Taken together, the reporting centers on the rebrand announcement, Trump’s stated rationale for changing the terminology, and his broader dismissal of AI-risk concerns and international supervisory approaches.
