What it requires

  • This order binds executive agencies, not developers, deployers or vendors; a federal agency document issued after that says Super Intelligence or SI means what artificial intelligence means in section 9401(3) of title 15, United States Code (Sections 2(a) and 3(a)).
  • If you are an executive agency, use Super Intelligence and SI in place of Artificial Intelligence and AI in official correspondence, public communications, websites, reports, policy documents and other non-statutory documents, to the maximum extent permitted by law; previously issued regulations, Presidential actions, contracts, grants and other historical documents need not be altered (Section 2).

Executive Order 14434 was issued on under the title Inaugurating the Era of Super Intelligence and published in the Federal Register on . It sets the policy that the executive branch, to the maximum extent permitted by law, uses the terms Super Intelligence and SI in place of Artificial Intelligence and AI.

Executive departments and agencies must use those terms in official correspondence, public communications, websites, reports, policy documents and other non-statutory documents within the executive branch, though nothing in that section requires them to alter previously issued regulations, Presidential actions, contracts, grants or other historical documents.

For the order's purposes, Super Intelligence and SI mean the technologies and systems that the term artificial intelligence covers as defined in section 9401(3) of title 15, United States Code, so the new terms reach the same technology as the statutory one.

Within 60 days of the order, the Assistant to the President for Science and Technology must submit to the President proposed legislative language for a Federal definition of Super Intelligence and SI, with an assessment of whether it should modify or supersede the statutory definition of artificial intelligence, any proposed conforming amendments, and recommendations for further executive action.

The order is addressed to executive agencies and places no duty on a developer, deployer or vendor, and it creates no right or benefit enforceable at law or in equity by any party. The Attorney General's memorandum of , which established the Department of Justice Super Intelligence Task Force and merged the department's Artificial Intelligence Task Force into it, cites the order.
