Trump Wants a New Name for Artificial Intelligence

At the recent Washington DC AI Summit, President Trump shared his thoughts about artificial intelligence. While he praised the technology and the companies involved, he made it clear that he does not like the term artificial intelligence. Trump said the word artificial bothers him and he wishes people would use a different name.

He explained that he does not like anything described as artificial because he believes AI is not fake, but rather something truly amazing. He even joked that someone should come up with a better name, but did not suggest any ideas himself. Other names for artificial intelligence that people use include machine learning and neural networks.

Some people were surprised by Trump’s comments because of his earlier support for less regulation on genetically modified crops, which are often called artificial or modified. The article also points out that the term AI is sometimes used too much, especially for products that do not really use advanced technology.

In the end, Trump’s comments raise a fun question for everyone: If we should not call it artificial intelligence, what should we call this exciting and growing technology?
