On Sunday, October 4, 2026, at 8:23 Washington time (14:23 Paris time), Donald Trump announced on his social media platform, Truth Social, the creation of the "Super Intelligence Force" (SIF). This group is intended to coordinate federal efforts related to artificial intelligence, which the administration now refers to as "Super Intelligence" (SI), following a presidential decree issued on September 29. Four officials from Trump's administration have been tasked with leading this effort, and they will report directly to the president and his chief of staff, Susie Wiles. On Monday, October 5, at 4:00 p.m. (Paris time), the White House website did not include any decree, memorandum, or summary document related to the SIF. The only available information came from a message preserved by the Truth Social archive, which stated that the SIF is an extension of an agreement signed at the White House on September 29 by six industry leaders. The SIF's goal is to ensure that the United States leads the world in Super Intelligence and to coordinate federal engagement with various stakeholders, including consumers, public interest groups, religious organizations, critical infrastructure operators, and Super Intelligence companies. The four officials named in the message are Jay Clayton, director of national intelligence; Andrew Ferguson, president of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC); Emil Michael, undersecretary of war for research and engineering and director of technology at the Pentagon; and Scott Kupor, director of the Office of Personnel Management. These roles align with those listed on the websites of their respective agencies. According to the Wall Street Journal, Jay Clayton will chair the SIF, while the other three will serve as vice presidents. Vice President JD Vance, Pentagon head Pete Hegseth, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent are also expected to be part of the group. The SIF has 120 days to submit a report on the risks and opportunities of Super Intelligence, though the starting point of this period is unknown. On October 5, the last entry on the White House's presidential acts page was a proclamation on National Manufacturing Day from October 2. On September 29, after signing the agreement, Trump told journalists that he would appoint an AI official within three or four days, according to CBS News. This appointment came five days later, in the form of a message. The SIF's legal basis, budget, personnel, schedule, and powers over companies remain unclear. The Wall Street Journal reported that the SIF is tasked with developing plans to address threats from Super Intelligence while avoiding overregulation. However, no public charter or formal act has been published to define the SIF's role.
