Trump picks David Sacks for Artificial Intelligence and Crypto Tsar, Science and Technology Council
Washington: Donald Trump says he is selecting venture capitalist David Sacks of Craft Ventures to serve as his artificial intelligence and crypto tsar, a newly created position that underscores the US president-elect’s intent to boost two rapidly developing industries.
“David will guide policy for the Administration in Artificial Intelligence and Cryptocurrency, two areas critical to the future of American competitiveness. David will focus on making America the clear global leader in both areas,” Trump said in a post to his Truth Social network on Friday (AEDT).
Trump said Sacks would also lead the Presidential Council of Advisors for Science and Technology.
