California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed an executive order on Wednesday requiring state agencies to continue using the terms “artificial intelligence” and “AI”, in opposition to US President Donald Trump’s effort to rebrand the technology as “superintelligence”.
The directive was issued in California, the main hub of the global technology industry and home to major developers across Silicon Valley, according to the source report.
Newsom, a Democrat, said changing the technology’s name could not distract from what he described as a failure to address documented security and safety risks linked to its development.
What does California’s order require?
The order instructs all departments and agencies under the governor’s authority to identify the systems exclusively as “Artificial Intelligence” and “AI” in official business.
It says the requirement applies regardless of any alternative or rebranded terminology adopted by the federal government.
Trump’s “superintelligence” policy
Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday renaming artificial intelligence as “superintelligence”. A day earlier, he said the leaders of the largest US technology companies had signed a “morally binding” agreement to introduce controls on the technology.
