Sriram Krishnan is leaving his role as White House AI advisor

Sriram Krishnan reportedly plans to leave his White House AI policy role by the end of June.

Sriram Krishnan is reportedly leaving his role as a White House AI policy advisor at the end of June. Reports say he has discussed launching a new policy institution staffed with engineers to support Trump administration AI plans. Public details remain limited, so the significance is mainly about personnel movement and a possible new outside channel for shaping U.S. AI policy.

TechCrunch, citing related reports, indicates that Sriram Krishnan will leave his post as AI advisor at the White House; another report says he plans to step down at the end of June 2026. Krishnan was previously one of the important figures on the Trump administration's AI policy team, with his role focused on artificial intelligence policy and the government's technology direction. The core of this change is not just an individual's departure, but the fact that he is reportedly discussing the establishment of a new policy institution, allowing himself to continue participating in and influencing the Trump administration's AI policy layout even without being formally inside the White House system.
