Sacks Exits White House AI Post to Lead Presidential Tech Advisory Council

Venture capitalist David Sacks says he has “used up” his 130-day limit as President Trump’s Special Advisor on AI and Crypto and will move to co-chair a broader White House tech-advise panel, the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST). The move follows the White House’s earlier announcements of new tech-elite appointments to the advisory council, including Mark Zuckerberg, Marc Andreessen, Jensen Huang, and Sergey Brin, with Michael Kratsios as co-chair; Sacks will focus on advising the president rather than coordinating with federal agencies.
