As reported by Fox Business:
The executive order followed a White House gathering of top technology CEOs President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order directing the federal government to replace the term "artificial intelligence" with "Super Intelligence" across the executive branch, cementing a rebranding effort he has championed in recent weeks.
Signed after a White House summit with leading technology executives, the order directs federal agencies to use the terms "Super Intelligence" and "SI" in official correspondence, public communications, websites, reports, policy documents and other non-statutory materials.
The order also directs agencies to "no longer acknowledge" the terms "artificial intelligence" and "AI," according to the White House.
The order further instructs the assistant to the president for science and technology to develop a federal definition of SI and recommend any additional executive actions needed to implement the new terminology.
Trump argued in the order that AI no longer reflects the technology's rapidly advancing capabilities, saying SI better captures its promise and potential.
"The term 'Super Intelligence' more appropriately captures the promise, potential, and rapidly advancing capabilities of these technologies," Trump wrote.[1]

Democratic lawmakers have called for more formalized steps to prevent the US government from deporting people to countries where their lives would be in danger or they could be subject to torture.
