A top White House artificial intelligence policy adviser on Saturday said he will leave his position at the end of June, marking the exit of a leading figure helping craft policies for frontier technologies.
“This journey has been the privilege of a lifetime,” the adviser, Sriram Krishnan, posted on social media.
Krishnan did not give a reason for leaving, but wrote in the post he intends to help “tackle some of the large challenges facing America” related to AI.

Krishnan has been involved in the Trump administration’s efforts to create a national framework for regulating developments in AI.
His departure comes as the president looks at the possibility of the US government acquiring stakes in AI firms.

“There’s something very interesting about it, where it almost becomes a partnership with the American public,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on Friday, adding that he planned to meet with AI executives as soon as next week.
