White House AI Adviser Krishnan to Leave Post and Launch Outside Policy Institution
Sriram Krishnan is departing his role as White House senior policy adviser for AI at month's end to establish an outside organization focused on technology policy, according to a person with knowledge of his plans.
Krishnan shaped the Trump administration's pro-industry approach to AI regulation during his tenure. His departure marks a shift in how the administration will structure its AI policy work.
The new institution remains in early planning stages. It is designed to allow Krishnan to maintain influence over the administration's AI strategy from outside government.
For government officials overseeing AI implementation or policy, this transition signals potential changes in how the administration coordinates between formal government roles and external advisory structures. The arrangement suggests the administration intends to rely on outside expertise to inform its AI decisions.
