First, AI as we know it (mostly LLMs); then Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)--adaptable human-level intelligence across multiple domains; then Artificial SuperIntelligence (ASI)--drastically exceeding the cognitive capacity, creativity, and problem-solving skills of even the smartest humans who ever lived.

I know this'll be like renaming things like the "Gulf of America" & go nowhere, but it's still incandescently dumb. Why make an already complicated topic MORE confusing?

  - Aligning the GOP Elites as the party of AI is good politics. Unregulated Super Inteligence is coming for your profession and may kill all of humanity but no need to reglate when we can just rebrand.**** - By Cincywolve September 22, 2026 at 12:38:53 PM
  - That's of course where he heard it, while only being able to focus on 'super'. Super is good!* - By ftb September 22, 2026 at 12:38:18 PM
    - Aligns real closely with Zuckerberg’s similarly disingenuous definition of super intelligence. Bad guys. (nm) - By suede September 22, 2026 at 12:42:23 PM

- Nikos, can the board style book follow, and can the board automatically change “AI” to “super intelligence” whenever it is typed? (Nm) - By danny September 22, 2026 at 12:02:06 PM
