On September 29, 2026, President Donald Trump signed an executive order renaming Artificial Intelligence to Super Intelligence. The administration stated that the term artificial implies something fake, while the new moniker better reflects the scale of the technology. Several federal agencies have already adopted this change.
On October 4, 2026, the President announced the creation of the Super Intelligence Force via Truth Social. This new body will report to the White House, manage domestic policy, and coordinate with the private sector to maintain American leadership in the field. The force aims to support the growth of the technology.
The rebranding creates uncertainty for numerous companies currently using AI in their names and products. Globally, the number of registered .ai domains has exceeded 1 million. These registrations generated an estimated $96.4 million for the 2026 budget of Antigua, representing nearly half of the nation's total government revenue.
Market speculators are currently purchasing .si domains, often creating look-alike sites for existing .ai platforms. Elon Musk has not yet transitioned his companies to the new terminology, as the X.ai domain continues to use the term Artificial Intelligence across its website.
