President Trump announced a new Super Intelligence Force to coordinate U.S. policy on artificial intelligence after a White House meeting where leading AI companies endorsed voluntary safety standards. The task force, which the administration says will engage consumers, public-interest groups, religious organizations, infrastructure providers and industry, will be led by Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton and report to the president and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles. Trump also named FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson, Pentagon CTO Emil Michael, and OPM Director Scott Kupor to leadership roles. The companies—among them OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Nvidia and Elon Musk’s SpaceXAI—agreed to four layers of controls and audits, including internal evaluations, third-party audits and board reviews. Framing the commitments as “morally binding,” Trump emphasized industry self-policing and directed agencies to use the term “Super Intelligence” in place of AI. The move signals a reliance on voluntary standards while the administration weighs further oversight.
