The U.S. Department of Justice has established the Super Intelligence Task Force (DOJ-SITF) to coordinate enforcement against misuse of advanced artificial intelligence by foreign actors, criminals, and fraudsters, merging its previous AI task force into this new body. The task force will centralise AI-related criminal and civil cases, prioritize public safety threats, and liaise with other federal entities to support enforcement while balancing innovation.
