For now, however, it applies the existing statutory definition of artificial intelligence under Title 15 of the US Code to “Super Intelligence”.\n\nThe directive also gives the Assistant to the President for Science and Technology 60 days to submit proposed legislative language to Congress establishing an updated statutory definition and recommending corresponding changes to existing laws.\n\nThe terminology change therefore precedes the proposed revision of the federal legal definition.\n\n## TECH LEADERS EMPHASISE SAFETY\n\nThe announcement follows a White House luncheon attended by senior technology executives, including Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai and Jensen Huang.\n\nTrump portrayed the technology’s potential impact as greater than that of the internet and described the sector as a major source of American growth.\n\nAfter the meeting, executives and administration officials outlined a White House Accord focused on safe development.\n\n“We want to give the American people and our customers confidence that the technology works in the way we intended,” Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said.\n\nAnthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for cooperation between industry and the administration.\n\n“We all need to work together to make sure that we can win and we can win safely. If we do this right, if we work with the President and everyone here, we can win safely,” he said.\n\nClayton highlighted the national security dimension, saying the discussions had identified American leadership in AI as a central security priority.\n\nThe new task force is intended to coordinate those economic, safety and security objectives while the administration pursues changes to the language and legal framework governing the technology.\n\n*With inputs from ANI*", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/trump-announces-super-intelligence-force-to-coordinate-us-ai-policy", "canonical_source": "https://openthemagazine.com/technology/trump-announces-super-intelligence-force-to-coordinate-us-ai-policy", "published_at": "2026-10-04 14:02:46+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-10-04 14:43:01.578402+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "ai-policy"], "entities": ["Donald Trump", "Super Intelligence Force", "Jay Clayton", "Andrew Ferguson", "Emil Michael", "Scott Kupor", "Susie Wiles", "White House"], "also_reported_by": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/trump-announces-super-intelligence-force-to-coordinate-us-ai-policy", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/trump-announces-super-intelligence-force-to-coordinate-us-ai-policy.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/trump-announces-super-intelligence-force-to-coordinate-us-ai-policy.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/trump-announces-super-intelligence-force-to-coordinate-us-ai-policy.jsonld"}}
