White House Secures AI Safety Pledge From Top CEOs as Trump Rebrands Tech as Super Intelligence

Summary
Nearly every major U.S. tech chief — including Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Anthropic’s Dario Amodei — joined a White House meeting this week to sign an AI safety pledge Trump called “morally binding.”
Trump paired the pledge with an executive order formally renaming artificial intelligence as “super intelligence,” turning a proposal he had already floated into official policy.
Meta and OpenAI are simultaneously giving their AI products a friendlier consumer image, even as the report says the biggest AI revenue still appears to be coming from enterprise customers.
That split feeds a wider industry backdrop in which consumer AI economics remain difficult, while public investors have grown more selective about AI listings and startups keep leaning on private funding.
