Summary
On Sept 19, 2026 Trump posted that 'Artificial Intelligence' is an inaccurate, 'ineloquent' name and asked followers to vote between Superior Intelligence (SI), Extreme Intelligence (EI) and Supreme Intelligence (SI). Days later he called AI 'super intelligence' at the UN, and on Sept 29 he said he would sign an order renaming it.

Many people think that the words “Artificial Intelligence” are inaccurate, and very ineloquent, relative to AI, or Artificial Intelligence. A far more elegant and accurate description of this new phenomena would be Superior Intelligence (SI) or, Extreme Intelligence (EI) or, Supreme Intelligence (SI). This is a Poll, and I would appreciate everybody voting! Which is the best name for this ever growing “Revolution?” President DONALD J. TRUMP
