Sriram Krishnan, who previously served as a product executive at tech companies including Microsoft, Twitter, and Facebook, and was formerly a partner at venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, announced that he will leave the Trump administration by late June this year, concluding his tenure leading artificial intelligence policy work in the White House. On social media platform X, Krishnan stated that serving the American public has been a great honor and thanked President Donald Trump for providing the opportunity. He believed that under the leadership of the Trump administration, the United States has maintained its leading position in global AI competition. As Senior Policy Advisor for Artificial Intelligence at the White House, Krishnan was one of the few important members from the core circle of the tech industry within the second Trump administration. Before entering government service, he had led product operations at various tech enterprises such as Microsoft, Yahoo, Twitter, Facebook, and Snap, before joining venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz as a partner. The founders of the firm publicly supported Trump during the 2024 US presidential election. Reflecting on his time in office, Krishnan cited the AI Action Plan released by the Trump administration as one of its significant achievements. This plan emphasized accelerating data center construction and infrastructure expansion, making increased computing power supply a central goal, placing greater focus on promoting industrial development and technological competitiveness rather than regulatory and security governance issues. During his tenure, the Trump administration also signed several administrative orders related to artificial intelligence, including measures aimed at limiting states' ability to independently formulate AI regulations and establishing a federal-level oversight framework for AI. However, some regulatory measures were delayed or scaled back amid opposition from the tech sector. Additionally, Trump had publicly expressed support for the concept of the government holding equity stakes in major AI firms to enhance national influence over critical technology industries. Krishnan specifically mentioned that investor and podcast host David Sacks worked most closely with him. Sacks, who previously headed AI and cryptocurrency affairs at the White House, later became Co-Chairman of the Presidential Council on Science and Technology Advisors. Krishnan noted that Sacks played an important role in shaping relevant policies through his continuous efforts to maintain America's lead in the field of artificial intelligence. Regarding future plans, Krishnan said he would dedicate himself to "building institutions" focused on addressing major challenges facing the United States and its allies. According to reports from The Washington Post, he is preparing to establish a new institution outside the government system and intends to continue exerting influence in the area of AI policy. Krishnan indicated that there remain many complex topics requiring joint advancement by the government, industry, and society regarding energy supply, data center construction, and how to ensure more Americans truly benefit from artificial intelligence technologies.
