特朗普总统希望将人工智能称为“超级智能”,简称SI,与斯洛文尼亚网站使用的缩写相同。

The president wants AI to be called super intelligence - or SI - the same initials used by Slovenian websites.

“.si”发言人克拉拉·赫尔曼表示,9月共有4.4万个“.si”后缀的网络地址完成注册,而8月还不到2,000个,增幅超过2,100%。她说,与此前12个月相比,9月下旬的活动规模“前所未有”。

si spokesperson Klara Herman said 44,000 web addresses with the .si suffix had beened in September, compared to less than 2,000 in August - an increase of more than 2,100%. She said the scale of activity in late September was "unprecedented" compared to the previous 12 months.

9月11日,特朗普总统在纽约举行的联合国大会上发表演讲时,呼吁重新为这项技术命名。他说:“使用‘人工’一词会让人以为它是假的。”

President Trump called for the technology to be renamed during his speech to the United Nations General Assembly in New York on 11 September. "The use of the word artificial makes it sound fake," he said.

“它不是假的,实际上/amazing得令人惊叹。但我们必须谨慎……欢迎来到超级智能的新世界。”互联网域名是人们输入网页浏览器以访问网站的唯一且可读的地址,例如bbc.co.uk。

"It's not fake, it's actually amazing. But we have to be careful... welcome to the new world of super intelligence." Internet domains are the unique human-readable addresses people type into their web browsers to access websites - like bbc.co.uk.

赫尔曼表示,9月份“.si”网络地址的注册量与今年其他月份相比“非常明显”地突出,但她对将全部增长都归因于特朗普总统的言论持“谨慎”态度。她说,仅9月30日一天就记录了1.1万项新注册。

Herman said registrations for .si web addresses in September stood out "very clearly" against the other months in the year, although she was "cautious" about attributing the entire increase to only President Trump's comments. She said on 30 September alone, 11,000 new registrations were recorded.

这些购买行为的一种可能解释是网络域名抢注,即人们投机性地提前注册特定域名,以防这些域名日后升值并可出售获利。

One possible explanation for the purchases is cyber-squatting - where people speculatively specific domain names in case they increase in value later on and can be sold for a profit.

例如,1997年,被称为“域名之王”的里克·施瓦茨以1.5万美元(1.13万英镑)买下men.com域名。七年后,他以132万美元将其出售。

For example, in 1997 Rick Schwartz, known as "The Domain King", bought the domain name men.com for $15,000 (£11,300). He sold it for $1.32 million seven years later.

周二,特朗普总统主持了一场科技行业高管会议,并将其称为“一场非凡的聚会”,与会者正在“建设美国的黄金时代”。

On Tuesday, President Trump hosted a meeting of top technology bosses for what he called "an extraordinary gathering" of the people "building America's Golden Age".

他签署了一项行政命令,指示美国政府各部和机构开始使用“SI”和“超级智能”这两个术语,并且不再承认使用“人工智能”(AI)这一术语。

He signed an executive order instructing US government departments and agencies to start using the terms "SI" and "Super Intelligence" and they should no longer acknowledge the use of the term AI.

该命令称,在“官方通信”、网站、报告及其他形式的通信中,“SI”将取代“人工智能”(AI)。

SI will take the place of AI in "official correspondence", websites, reports and other forms of communication, the order said.

不过,该命令的签名图片在网上遭到了嘲笑——人们发现,特朗普总统签名下方的“United States”拼写错误。

Images of the signatures for the order were mocked online however - when it was discovered "United States" had been spelt incorrectly underneath President Trump's signature.
