President Donald Trump said Tuesday he will sign a “very powerful” executive order on “superintelligence.”
“This kind of innovation in government is just a preview of what is possible with superintelligence or SI, and that’s the official name in the United States,” he said. “I’ll be signing a very powerful executive order. I spoke to President Xi; he loves it, and because when you say artificial intelligence, it’s artificial.”
“This isn’t; this is extreme intelligence,” he continued. “It’s superior intelligence. It’s supreme, also intelligence, but the word ‘super’ is the best word of all, and it’s the simplest.”
Trump spoke while unveiling a new website that uses artificial intelligence to make it easier for U.S. citizens to access federal services.
The website, America.gov, will make sure “the federal government no longer stands in your way, and it stands only at your service,” Trump said.
Trump said the creation of the new website was so complicated that the administration has been working on it since almost day one.
“We’re making it dramatically easier and faster, and more convenient to get what you need exactly when you need it,” he said.
Trump said this will make it easier for married women to change their names without navigating “a stressful bureaucratic process that took months and months and even years to complete.”
“Very soon, all she’ll have to do is ask America.gov, and it’ll fill out the forms, track the progress, and send her a new social security card, passport, and insurance card in the mail. It’ll arrive almost instantly,” he said.
“Whether you’re a scout leader who wants to reserve a campsite at a national park, a senior citizen trying to choose a Medicare plan, or an American veteran trying to get the benefits that you’ve earned and so justly deserve, America.gov will be there to help and to help you accurately and quickly,” he said. “And with this, nobody can any longer complain about providing proof of citizenship or voter ID.”
The first part of the website launched Tuesday, but Trump said it will continue to evolve in months ahead.
“I will sign a historic executive order directing every federal government agency to make all of their public-facing services integrate directly with America.gov as soon as possible,” he said.
