WASHINGTON, Oct ‌27 (Reuters) - ​US ​President Donald Trump said he would ‌ban the term artificial intelligence ⁠in documents and everything ‌else, as he ‌questioned why the Wall Street Journal was not ​using his preferred term, super intelligence.

"When will ⁠The Wall Street Journal start calling ​Artificial Intelligence (AI), a very bad and inaccurate name, ​SI (Super Intelligence), ‌the name which virtually everyone else ⁠is using, or soon will be," Trump said ⁠in a post on Truth Social.

"In ​short order, we will be officially BANNING the term, “AI/Artificial Intelligence,” ‌in all relevant documents, and everything ‌else, due to ⁠its inaccuracy."
