LONDON — 安圭拉是加勒比海上长仅16英里的小岛，一直在向居民保证，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普试图将人工智能重新命名为“超级智能”不会毁掉其经济。
LONDON — Anguilla, a Caribbean island just 16 miles long, has had to reassure its inhabitants that U.S. President Donald Trump’s attempts to rebrand artificial intelligence as “super intelligence” will not tank its economy.
安圭拉拥有.ai域名，自人工智能热潮开始以来，该岛相当一部分收入来自人们注册.ai网站。特朗普试图将人工智能重新命名为“超级智能”引发了担忧，即该岛的收入可能受到损害。
Anguilla owns the .ai domain name, and since the AI boom began, a significant chunk of the island’s revenues have come from peopleing for .ai websites. Trump's attempt to rebrand artificial intelligence as “super intelligence” caused concern that the island's income could be damaged.
但安圭拉科技部长何塞·范特尔普尔周一在政府新闻发布会上表示，这个小岛并不预见长期对.ai域名需求的下降，并且自特朗普最近关于“超级智能”的声明以来，销售实际上有所增加。
But Anguillian technology minister José Vanterpool told a government press conference on Monday that the tiny island does not foresee a dent in demand for .ai domain names in the long term, and that since Trump's recent “super intelligence” announcements sales have actually increased.
“我想向公众保证，目前我们没有理由相信这一声明会对安圭拉的.ai域名行业构成直接威胁，”范特尔普尔说，指的是特朗普。
“I want to reassure the general public that at this stage, we have no reason to believe that this announcement poses an immediate threat to Anguilla's .ai domain industry,” said Vanterpool, referring to Trump.
特朗普在9月22日联合国大会上的演讲中呼吁将人工智能更名。9月29日，特朗普签署行政命令，将人工智能更名为“超级智能”。特朗普的改名似乎导致了对.si域名需求的激增。据BBC报道，9月份.si域名（由斯洛文尼亚所有）注册量达到44,000个，而8月份为2,000个，仅9月30一天就达11,000个。
In his Sept. 22 address to the United Nations General Assembly Trump called for AI to be renamed. On Sept. 29, Trump signed an executive order renaming artificial intelligence as “super intelligence.”Trump's rebranding appears to have caused a surge for demand for .si websites. Registrations of .si domains (which are owned by Slovenia) hit 44,000 in September compared to 2,000 in August, with 11,000 on Sept. 30 alone, reported the BBC.
