Zuckerberg Defends AI Amid Regulation Alerts, Calls It 'Superintelligence'
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of tech company Meta, defended on Wednesday the idea that 'empowering people' with artificial intelligence, rather than concentrating its control in a few hands, is the best path toward a safe future, despite acknowledging that this notion has become, in his words, 'surprisingly controversial.' During his keynote address at Meta Connect 2026, held at the company's campus in Menlo Park, California, Zuckerberg also used the term 'superintelligence,' which was mentioned by U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday, who announced that the United States will officially replace the term 'artificial intelligence' with 'superintelligence' in its official documentation and rejected any 'globalist scheme' to regulate its development at the UN. Zuckerberg used the term 'superintelligence' at least twice during his speech: when describing the 'highest purpose' of technology as creation rather than automation, and when projecting that Muse, Meta's personal AI agent introduced two weeks ago, will be a first step toward 'personal superintelligence' for billions of people. The entrepreneur defended an optimistic view of technology, stating that building is 'an act of love,' through which, he said, his company expresses its understanding of the world.
