David Sacks Out as AI and Crypto Czar

David Sacks will no longer serve as artificial intelligence and crypto czar in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, an administration official confirmed to The Daily Signal.

As a special government employee limited to 130 days of service, Sacks’ term in the White House came to an end, he first indicated in an interview with BloombergTV. He did not serve the 130 days consecutively.

Sacks will now serve as co-chair of the Presidential Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, alongside Michael Kratsios, science and technology adviser to the president.

The White House announced Wednesday that the council will include Big Tech giants including Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Andreessen Horowitz co-founder Marc Andreessen, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang.

“Under President Trump, PCAST will focus on topics related to the opportunities and challenges that emerging technologies present to the American workforce, and ensuring all Americans thrive in the Golden Age of Innovation,” the White House says.

Zuckerburg was appointed to the board one day after a New Mexico jury found Meta liable for failing to protect children from exploitation on its platforms.

On Friday, the White House unveiled its National Framework for Artificial Intelligence.
