The White House supplied a new abbreviation. We supplied ten alternatives. These are jokes, not quotations, technical definitions, or names adopted by an agency.
Key takeaways
- This SI top 10 is political satire about Trump's AI-to-SI naming push.
- Stupid Idiot, Stupendous Ignoramus, and the other entries are our invented expansions of SI.
- The actual executive order and separate safety agreement are linked; neither contains our joke definitions.
Choose a presidential size below. The deluxe edition comes with a gold finish and a room full of people insisting the finish is the achievement.
1. Stupid Idiot
The working title.
2. Stupendous Ignoramus
For when ordinary ignorance needs a gold finish.
3. Supersized Idiocy
Same stupidity. Presidential portions.
4. Supreme Incompetence
An achievement his applause department can recognize.
5. Spectacular Ineptitude
A bad idea with a signing ceremony.
6. Swollen Importance
When the ego takes up more space than the Oval Office.
7. Serial Insecurity
Nothing says confidence like demanding a more flattering name.
8. Sycophant Infestation
The condition of the room around the signing table.
9. Signage Inflation
The economy where every sign gets bigger and nothing gets better.
10. Superficial Intelligence
The adjective is super. The evidence is pending.
Unofficial release notes.
One letter upgraded. Same statutory definition. No capability improvement demonstrated by the order. Please restart the press conference to complete installation.
A wrong answer with an S is still a wrong answer. The useful work belongs to researchers, engineers, and evaluators who can show what improved. The adjective can collect its participation ribbon on the way out.
The portrait has a point.
The Washington portrait knows more about AI. At least it understands framing.
In our Oval Office cartoon, Washington says, “I crossed the Delaware for this?” The scene and speech bubble are invented satire.
The actual paperwork.
The September 29, 2026 executive order directs executive-branch terminology. The separate safety accord appears on The Signers. Neither document contains our ten definitions. That helpful nonsense is entirely our department.
