Sources say tech investor Sriram Krishnan, the architect of the Trump administration’s pro-industry AI policy, plans to leave the White House at month-end to found an external organization aimed at influencing technology policy. Krishnan helped design the administration’s AI Action Plan, which proposed easing regulation of new technologies and accelerating a nationwide data-center buildout, and he assisted in drafting an executive order to limit state-level AI regulation. But advanced models such as Anthropic’s Mythos have shown the ability to find software security vulnerabilities, raising senior government concerns about cyberattack risk and prompting some officials to reassess the administration’s deregulatory course.
