President Donald Trump announced Sunday that Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton will lead a new “Super Intelligence Force” coordinating federal policy on artificial intelligence, which the administration has begun calling “super intelligence.”
Trump said the task force would work with consumers, public-interest and religious groups, critical-infrastructure providers and technology companies to maintain U.S. leadership in the field. Federal Trade Commission Chair Andrew Ferguson, Pentagon technology official Emil Michael and Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor will also help lead the group. They will report to Trump and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.
According to reports citing the task force’s charter, the group has 120 days to prepare an assessment of AI’s risks and opportunities. Its responsibilities also include developing responses to technology-enabled threats while seeking to avoid rules that could inhibit innovation or competition.
The announcement followed a White House meeting with leaders from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Nvidia and Elon Musk’s xAI. Those companies signed the one-page “White House Accord on Super Intelligence,” committing to internal safety controls, independent external audits, board-level reviews and regular meetings on standards and best practices.
The accord is not legally binding. Trump described it as “morally binding” and said companies must police their own conduct. Apple was absent from the meeting, while Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella attended the associated luncheon but did not sign the accord, according to CNBC and The Hindu.
