US President Donald Trump has given a big and shocking statement regarding technology and global politics from the platform of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). Trump announced that from now on Artificial Intelligence (AI) will not just be called ‘artificial’ but officially ‘Super Intelligence’ (SI) Will be said. According to Trump, the word ‘artificial’ makes this revolutionary technology look like fake, whereas this technology is actually amazing and changing human history.
In his address to the global forum, the US President directly termed this technological race as a war for global supremacy and becoming a superpower. He said in clear words, “Whoever wins AI, WINS!” That means, the country which wins this technological race will rule the world in the future. Trump claimed that America is far ahead of China and all other countries in this race and he will maintain this lead at any cost.
Donald Trump said during his speech that in all official documents of the US government, the more accurate word ‘Super’ will now be used instead of the word ‘Artificial’. He told the global leaders present at the gathering, “Welcome to the New World of Super Intelligence — SI”.
Trump argued that saying artificial gives the impression that it is something artificial or second-rate, whereas it is a revolution many times bigger and more influential than the Industrial Revolution and the advent of the Internet. He said that this technology is going to make a huge contribution to the US economy and global GDP in the future, hence it is necessary to name it ‘Super Intelligence’ according to its real potential.
This stance of Trump in the United Nations General Assembly appeared to be in complete contrast to the efforts around the world, where demands are being made to impose strict rules and limits on AI at the global level. Trump made it clear that America will not accept any kind of ‘globalist control’ (framework of global control) on this technology.
He stressed that his government will fully encourage the development of this technology instead of stopping or reining it in. Trump believes that imposing strict rules and restrictions could slow down America’s technological progress, which would give rivals like China a chance to move ahead. Therefore, innovation and competition will be allowed to proceed without any hindrance.
In his address, the US President openly mentioned the ongoing technological race with China. He described the ongoing competition between America and China in the field of semiconductor chips, quantum computing and advanced algorithms as the most decisive competition of the 21st century.
Trump said that America has always led the world in technology and innovation and will not let any rival get ahead even in the matter of super intelligence. He indicated that the US administration will soon assign the responsibility of accelerating this mission to high-potential technical talents and leaders, so that the global dominance of American companies remains.
This statement of Trump has come at a time when top scientists, AI researchers and policy makers around the world are issuing warnings about its possible dangers. Recently, many experts, including Geoffrey Hinton, known as the ‘Godfather of AI’, had warned that uncontrolled super intelligence without safety standards and regulation could pose a risk to humanity.
Bills are also being discussed in the US Senate to limit the technology and implement security mechanisms. However, setting aside all these concerns and apprehensions, Trump has given the message of keeping his entire focus on the unlimited potential and economic benefits of technology.
