Anguilla minister Jose Vanterpool: "Super Intelligence" rename is no threat to .ai, September sales rose
· Summary of an article by Rebecca Bird, Anguilla Focus
At a 12 October press conference, Anguilla's IT minister Jose Vanterpool said there is no reason for alarm over President Trump's push to replace "artificial intelligence" with "super intelligence", which began at the UN on 22 September and was followed by a 29 September executive order for federal agencies. He stressed that the change only concerns US federal wording: it does not affect Anguilla's control of .ai, and existing owners do not need to change their web addresses.
Vanterpool added that .ai sales in September were higher than in August, and that growth in Slovenia's .si registrations does not mean .ai is shrinking. For .ai holders the government's message is that nothing has changed, although the article gives no revenue or registration figures to back it up.
