CORRECTION -- STORY UPDATED: check for updates below.
Was the name of the U.S. actually misspelled in Donald Trump's "super intelligence" accord with tech executives as "Unites States"? Yes, that's true: President Trump shared two images of the "White House Accord on Super Intelligence" with the spelling error on his Truth Social account. Several media outlets also reported on the mistake, which happened shortly after the President signed an executive order about the use of the term "super intelligence".
One social media user that noticed the mistake said this in a post (archived here) published on X by the @FurkanGozukara account on Sept. 29, 2026:
Superintelligence community has a spelling error 🤣
This is what the image shared in the post looked like on X at the time of writing:

Here is a close-up from the above picture showing the spelling mistake under the president's signature:

Both the image and the spelling error were real.
Trump signed (archived here) an executive order (archived here) to replace the term "Artificial Intelligence" with "Super Intelligence" on Sept. 29, 2026. Shortly after that the President published (archived here and here) two images (including the image reviewed in this fact-check) on his account on Truth Social on the same day. It contained the same mistake (click to view larger):

The images showed a document titled "White House Accord on Super Intelligence" signed by several tech executives and the President.
The existence of the spelling error in the accord was covered by the media, as seen, for example, here and here (archived here and here).
