Top Trump administration adviser abruptly announces resignation
Trump shares AI-generated music video to song praising himself
Sriram Krishnan, a top White House artificial intelligence policy adviser, announced his departure from his position at the end of June.
Krishnan was involved in crafting policies for frontier technologies and creating a national framework for AI regulation, stating he intends to help tackle large AI-related challenges facing America.
His departure coincides with the president exploring the possibility of the U.S. government acquiring stakes in AI firms, viewing it as a potential partnership with the American public.
The president’s interest in AI has been complicated by security concerns within his administration, including a previous standoff with AI firm Anthropic over military use of its models.
The White House recently issued an executive order directing leading AI developers to voluntarily submit their most capable models for government cybersecurity tests before public release.
