President Donald Trump on Tuesday said US government documents would use "super intelligence" going forward instead of artificial intelligence, and repeated his previous calls about AI warnings being a hoax.

"From this point forward, all of United States documents, and hopefully the world's will be changed to use the much more accurate term 'super' as opposed to artificial. So it's super intelligence," Trump said in a UN General Assembly speech.

"I'm not going to stifle growth of something that will be bigger than the industrial revolution," he said.
