US President Donald Trump announced the creation of an AI Force to oversee the regulation of artificial intelligence and announced the appointment of a separate official in this area. He also proposed renaming artificial intelligence and put 3 options for a new name to the vote.
This is reported by YLE News , Channel NewsAsia and The Hill .
Trump announced plans to create an AI Force in a post on the social network Truth Social on September 19. According to him, the structure will oversee the regulation of artificial intelligence. The US president also said that he will soon announce the appointment of an “AI czar” – an official responsible for this area.
Trump has said he has no intention of curbing the development of the AI industry. At the same time, he said the government will monitor its development and respond to what he labeled as “BAD” using the existing criminal and civil justice systems.
Separately, Trump suggested changing the name of Artificial Intelligence. In Truth Social, he put forward 3 options for the poll:
- Superior Intelligence;
- Extreme Intelligence;
- Supreme Intelligence.
As of 12:45 p.m. on September 19, more than 27,000 users had participated in the survey. By the end of 2025, Trump had already suggested the name Supreme Intelligence, but at the time he noted that the final decision should be made by industry representatives.
Trump’s initiatives come amid a debate in the US about regulating artificial intelligence. Republican senators Josh Gowley and John Hasted this week introduced initiatives on data security and data center infrastructure development.
House Speaker Mike Johnson has called for industry restrictions while also emphasizing self-regulation. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has called for a slowdown in the pace of AI model development.
By the way, the US military almost conducted an operation against a Chinese ship because of a false intelligence report created using artificial intelligence . The document falsely claimed that the ship was carrying components for a nuclear program.
Recall that Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman have advocated slowing down the development of the most powerful artificial intelligence systems . They believe that this is necessary to strengthen security and create mechanisms to control the development of the technology.
