It’s not AI anymore, it’s ‘super intelligence’ (according to the White House)
techcrunch ·
The White House recently convened major tech leaders, including CEOs from Meta and Anthropic, to sign an AI safety pledge described by President Donald Trump as morally binding. In a significant policy shift, Trump also signed an executive order officially rebranding artificial intelligence as "super intelligence." This move coincides with companies like Meta and OpenAI attempting to present friendlier images of their AI products to the public. Despite these consumer-facing efforts, the article notes that the largest financial gains in the sector continue to stem from enterprise applications. The discussion was featured on TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, which analyzed the complex economics of consumer AI alongside shifting IPO market trends. Additionally, the report highlighted several recent startup deals and developments within the broader technology landscape. These events underscore a growing emphasis on both regulatory frameworks and public perception in the rapidly evolving AI industry.
