Krishnan, a former Twitter executive who advised Elon Musk during his acquisition of the social media platform, is leaving the White House.
Senior White House policy adviser on artificial intelligence Sriram Krishnan, a former Twitter executive who advised Elon Musk during his acquisition of the social media platform, announced Saturday he will leave his role at the end of June.
In a social media post, Krishnan described serving the American people as “the privilege of a lifetime” and thanked President Donald Trump for the opportunity.
“Without his leadership, we would not be leading in the AI race,” Krishnan wrote.
Krishnan also thanked David Sacks, saying he had worked most closely with him over the past 18 months and praising his advocacy for American leadership in artificial intelligence.
Among the accomplishments Krishnan said he was most proud of were helping architect and publish the American AI Action Plan, advancing AI acceleration partnerships, helping develop the National AI Policy Framework for AI executive order, and advocating for the American AI technology sector with allies around the world.
Looking ahead, Krishnan said the United States and its allies face challenges involving energy, data centers, and expanding access to artificial intelligence technologies.
“I plan on building institutions that help tackle some of those challenges for America and its allies,” he wrote.
Krishnan also thanked numerous administration officials and others for their support, including Vice President JD Vance, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Elon Musk, and others.
