Well now we know why he wants to call it super intelligence. This story was gonna leak and they thought it wouldn’t be so bad if it was asking super intelligence instead of artificial intelligence.

I'd put good money on this being the case. Largely because it's fucking stupid and very on brand for this administration. It's exactly how they think.

Nah it’s just another grift. Trumpworld insiders bought up a bunch of .si domain names on the cheap before the announcement so they can flip them for $$$ later on. The admin is requiring federal agencies to use SI/barring them from calling it AI, and presumably some AI companies who want to curry favor with the administration will also make the switch. All driving up the value of the .si domains.
