In a speech Tuesday morning at the UN General Assembly, Donald Trump railed against Iran, “globalists,” climate change, and transgender people while also claiming that the US is now “officially” renaming artificial intelligence to “super intelligence.” Oddly, this wasn’t one of the entries in the poll Trump posted a few days ago when he started on this tangent.
Why is he saying this at all? Because, according to Trump, the word artificial makes intelligence fake. Is that what makes it sound fake to you? I can think of a few other reasons.
Trump has previously decreed renaming the Gulf of Mexico, Lake Superior, the Kennedy Center, and Denali, with digital maps quickly switching the labels on landmarks for users in the US, but he says that with this “Let’s see if I have any power. Maybe I do, and maybe I don’t, we’re gonna find out pretty soon.”
The United States also totally rejects any attempt to construct a globallist scheme to control for the artificial intelligence being spoken of so much now. Here and after officially called “super intelligence,” changing the name, and that the use of the word artificial makes intelligence fake. It makes it sound fake, and it is not fake. It’s actually amazing. But we have to be careful. In fact, it is exactly the opposite of what it purports. From this point forward, all of the 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. In other words, welcome to the new world of super intelligence—SI. That’s, uh, let’s see if that does. It sounds much better. It is much better, and it’s much more accurate. Let’s see if I have any power. Maybe I do, and maybe I don’t, we’re gonna find out pretty soon. Super intelligence. Every major new technology brings challenges, and super intelligence is… no exception. Yet. the very same people who said we’ll all be dead in 12 years because of global warming — a name since reborn to climate change because the planet was cooling, not warming, and nobody was dead. These are the same people that are now saying that AI is going to kill us all, that robots are going to attack us, and that everything is going to be a total disaster. Same group of people. This is the group. That came up with. The Russia, Russia, Russia hoax. Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine hoax. Climate change, open borders. Whoever wins AI, you have to remember this. And now I say, whoever wins…SI. Whoever wins super intelligence wins. That’s the group that wins. And we’re leading now over China by a lot and everyone else. We’re going to keep it that way. We’re going to keep it very, very straight and very strong. I’m not going to stifle growth of something that will be bigger than the Industrial Revolution. Many say bigger than the Industrial Revolution or the internet itself. And we will be very careful, and that’s why we have a Department of Justice that…. we’ve already used it having to do with this very subject, and used it very powerfully. Everything worked out very well and very quickly, and other law enforcement bodies that will rein things in if we have to do that. But we will only encourage super intelligence. We’re going to encourage it, not rein it in. We’re going to watch it closely through the Department of Justice. The United States leads the world in super intelligence and will continue to do so safely and responsibly. Americans have never been a nation that retreats from a frontier or shrinks from a challenge, no matter how great or how daunting that challenge may be. Freedom was not a gift that Americans want easily after 250 years, and it is not one that we will ever, ever, ever, ever surrender.
