Sriram Krishnan, a former tech executive and VC, is leaving his role as a senior policy advisor on artificial intelligence at the White House. Krishnan expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to serve under President Donald Trump, highlighting the administration's AI Action Plan and several executive orders around AI.
During his tenure, Krishnan worked closely with David Sacks, the investor and podcaster who stepped down as AI and crypto czar earlier this year. Krishnan plans to build institutions that tackle big challenges for America and its allies, including energy, data centers, and AI benefits.
According to reports, Krishnan will start an outside institution that will allow him to continue influencing Trump's AI policy, focusing on issues such as regulation, safety, and oversight.
