Trump announces America.gov chatbot and Super Intelligence wording
Trump announced a Gemini-powered America.gov chatbot and ordered agencies to say Super Intelligence instead of AI.
President Trump announced that the White House is launching America.gov, an AI chatbot meant to be a single front door for U.S. government services and information. Google confirmed it is a partner and that Gemini is involved, though other contributors were not identified. TechCrunch warned that model hallucinations could cause missed deadlines, denied benefits, or penalties for people seeking help with food stamps, visas, or taxes, and cited a CNN report that the U.S. military nearly acted against a Chinese vessel after an AI hallucination. Separately, The Verge reported that Trump signed an executive order directing agencies to stop using “artificial intelligence” or “AI” on official websites, in policy documents, and in press releases, substituting “Super Intelligence,” while past regulations do not have to be rewritten. After a White House lunch with tech executives including Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Elon Musk, Trump endorsed industry self-regulation alongside existing Justice Department and FBI authority and said data-center builders should support local communities. The two reports cover different announcements and do not contradict each other.
