President Donald Trump Establishes New 'Super Intelligence Force' Led by Top Administration Officials

President Donald Trump announced on Sunday the formation of a new “Super Intelligence Force” designed to maintain American leadership in the artificial intelligence sector. According to the president, this specialized task force will coordinate government relations with consumers, public interest groups, religious organizations, infrastructure providers, and AI companies.

The leadership team for the initiative includes Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, Federal Trade Commission Chairman Andrew Ferguson, Pentagon chief technology officer Emil Michael, and Director of the Office of Personnel Management Scott Kupor. The task force will report directly to President Donald Trump and White House chief of staff Susie Wiles.

This major development follows a recent White House meeting where top AI executives gathered to sign a new commitment focused on industry self-regulation. Proponents of this light-touch strategy argue it effectively balances safety priorities with the administration's goal of accelerating the growth of what President Donald Trump refers to as “Super Intelligence.” During a high-profile White House luncheon, the president praised the attending CEOs while downplaying potential risks associated with the rapid advancement of AI technology.
