Sriram Krishnan to Depart as White House AI Advisor, Impacting AI Policy Direction
Sriram Krishnan, a former tech executive and venture capitalist, is set to leave his position as a senior policy advisor on artificial intelligence at the White House by the end of June. Krishnan, who has been part of the Trump administration, expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to serve under President Trump, highlighting the administration's AI Action Plan as a key accomplishment. This plan prioritized data center construction over regulation and safety. Krishnan's departure follows a series of executive orders signed by President Trump aimed at challenging state-level AI regulations and considering government equity stakes in major AI companies. Krishnan has worked closely with David Sacks, who recently stepped down as AI and crypto czar.
