Trump's pushing the term "super intelligence" is stupid for many reasons (not least because "superintelligence" was already a term with a specific meaning in semi-technical and policy/philosophical discussions about AI). But now his bullying about it is reaching an Orwellian pitch.

This sort of thing, forcing adherence/compliance of stupid terminology/naming, creates more opportunity for ordinary people to find conflict in ordinary conversation. Referring to something, otherwise apolitical, like a lake, becomes an allegiance test.
