Sriram Krishnan is leaving his role as White House AI advisor at the end of June

Krishnan, who served as a senior policy advisor on artificial intelligence at the White House, is departing at the end of June. He previously led product teams at Microsoft, Twitter, Yahoo, Facebook, and Snap, and was most recently a partner at Andreessen Horowitz.

During his tenure, Krishnan highlighted the administration's AI Action Plan, which prioritized data center construction over regulation and safety. Trump also signed executive orders on AI, including one challenging state-level AI regulations and another focused on oversight that was delayed and narrowed after industry pushback.

Krishnan said he will be 'building institutions' that tackle big challenges for 'America and its allies,' and according to The Washington Post, he is planning to start an outside institution that will still give him a role in influencing Trump's AI policy.
