Alongside him, David O. Sacks, former Chief Operating Officer of PayPal, has been named the White House AI and crypto czar.</p> <p> Krishnan’s role will involve shaping the administration’s AI policy, working to maintain American leadership in AI and coordinating AI policy across the government. He will also collaborate with the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology to ensure that the US remains at the forefront of AI developments.</p> <p> <strong>Sriram Krishnan's Journey from Tech Space to White House</strong></p> <p> Born in Chennai, India, Krishnan pursued a BTech degree in Information Technology at SRM Engineering College in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu. At the age of 21, he moved to the United States in 2005 to further his career in technology. His professional journey began with Microsoft in 2005, where he started building his experience in the tech industry. Over the years, Krishnan held significant leadership roles at major companies, including X (formerly Twitter), Yahoo!, Facebook and Snap, where he led product teams and contributed to the development of innovative solutions.</p> <p> In 2021, Krishnan and his wife, Aarthi Ramamurthy, co-hosted a podcast, initially called the "Good Time Show," which was later renamed to "The Aarthi and Sriram Show." The podcast became well-known for featuring interviews with leading tech industry figures and discussing trends in technology and entrepreneurship. Krishnan also served as a general partner at Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), a prominent venture capital firm. In 2023, he was selected to head the firm’s London office. However, Krishnan left the firm in late November 2023 to focus on his new role in the Trump administration.</p> <p> Krishnan’s involvement with Tesla CEO Elon Musk began with their collaboration on the restructuring of Twitter (now rebranded as X) following Musk’s acquisition of the company in 2022. The two worked closely on revamping the platform’s operations and strategy, making significant changes to improve its financial health and user engagement. Musk's involvement in the restructuring led to his co-leadership of the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), a policy group focused on suggesting ways to reduce federal spending and improve government efficiency.</p> <p> <strong>Shaping US AI Policy</strong></p> <p> As the Senior White House AI Policy Advisor, Krishnan’s duties will include overseeing the development of AI policies that ensure the United States remains a global leader in the field. His expertise in AI, technology, and entrepreneurship will contribute to the formulation of strategies that promote innovation while addressing the challenges posed by rapidly advancing AI technologies. Krishnan has shared his perspectives on AI in the past, notably discussing the importance of code-driven solutions in addressing legal concerns related to data licensing and the need for maintaining an open internet.</p> <p> Krishnan’s appointment is part of a broader trend of Indian-Americans being chosen for key roles in the Trump administration. Jay Bhattacharya, a scientist, has been nominated as the Director of the National Institutes of Health, the nation’s leading health research organization. Other notable Indian-American appointments include Vivek Ramaswamy, who will lead the Department of Government Efficiency, and Harmeet K. Dhillon, nominated as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the Department of Justice. Kash Patel has been named the Director of the FBI, marking a historic moment as the highest-ranking Indian-American in the history of the agency.</p> <p> Krishnan’s role in the Trump administration is expected to significantly influence the direction of AI policy in the coming years, with his extensive background in technology, product development and venture capital positioning him as a key figure in shaping the future of AI in the United States.</p> <br /> <br /> </span> </div>  <div class="Georgia15b" id="nominated2_2" style="margin-bottom:10px;"> <div id="consistent2"> </div> </div> </div>
