On October 4th (local time), U.S. President Donald Trump announced in a post on his social networking service ``Truth Social'' that he would create a new organization, ``Super Intelligence Force'' (SIF), to coordinate the federal government's efforts in the field of superintelligence (SI).
It will be led by four people, including Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Jay Clayton and Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Chairman Andrew Ferguson.
According to the post, SIF's mission is to coordinate federal efforts to ensure the United States continues to lead the world in SI. Trump described SI as something that would surpass the industrial revolution and the Internet, and said it would protect the interests and improve the lives of all Americans. The SIF also coordinates the federal government's interactions with consumers, public interest groups, religious organizations, critical infrastructure operators, and system integration companies.
In addition to Clayton and Ferguson, SIF will be led by Emil Michael, the War Department's undersecretary for research and engineering and chief technology officer, and Scott Cooper, director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). The SIF reports directly to the President and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.

He holds a bachelor's degree in engineering from the University of Pennsylvania.
Mr. Ferguson is the chairman of the FTC, which is responsible for consumer protection and competition policy. It has also taken a tough stance against AI companies. On September 15, when Bloomberg reported that OpenAI was in talks with Anthropic and Google DeepMind over the safety of AI, the company said it would be deeply suspicious if an AI company asked for an exemption from antitrust laws.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and Elon Musk, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, OpenAI President Greg Brockman, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella were in attendance.
On the same day, Trump signed an executive order requiring federal government agencies to use the term "SI" instead of "AI." Top executives from participating companies signed the ``White House Accord on Super Intelligence,'' a voluntary agreement regarding safety measures for frontier models.
