U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said the right-wing venture capitalist David Sacks would become “the White House A.I. & Crypto Czar,” a post on his social media platform Truth Social showed.
Trump called artificial intelligence (AI) and cryptocurrency “two areas critical to the future of American competitiveness.”
Sacks, a confidant of tech billionaire Elon Musk, will be charged with making the U.S. the clear world market leader in the AI and digital currency business.
Trump, who has long complained about what he has called a “liberal bias” from large tech companies such as Meta, also said that Sacks “will safeguard Free Speech online, and steer us away from Big Tech bias and censorship.”
Sacks will also be charged with creating a legal framework for the crypto industry so “it has the clarity it has been asking for and can thrive in the U.S.”
The multi-billionaire Sacks will also head the future president’s advisory board on science and technology. (dpa/NAN)
