What Is Superintelligence (ASI)? Meaning, Examples, Risks
Six METR researchers now work inside Anthropic to check its AI. What they can see, what they can publish, and the limits of the deal.
Trump's super intelligence executive order renames AI for US agencies. What EO 14434 says, how it is applied and what comes next.
A hypothetical AI that would far exceed the best human minds in virtually every field. Philosopher Nick Bostrom defines it as "any intellect that greatly exceeds the cognitive performance of humans in virtually all domains of interest". No AI system has been shown to reach that level. Read the explainer.
In US government documents, yes. Executive Order 14434 made "Super Intelligence" the official federal name for the technologies that US law calls artificial intelligence. In research, superintelligence still means a far more capable future AI. See the difference.
Several AI companies say it is their goal. Safe Superintelligence Inc., founded by Ilya Sutskever, Daniel Gross and Daniel Levy, states that its mission is to develop superintelligence safely, and Meta Superintelligence Labs focuses on research toward it. Others warn it could be dangerous, which is why we also cover safety.
