Trump says he will name a new AI adviser and create an “AI force.”

U.S. President Donald Trump said in a social-media post that he would appoint a new artificial-intelligence adviser, described as an “AI czar,” and establish an “AI force.” Reuters reported that the announcement did not explain the proposed force’s membership, mandate or legal basis.

The appointment would follow David Sacks, who stepped down from the AI adviser role. Reuters said the White House had not immediately responded to a request for more details, while the announcement came ahead of an expected meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping amid intensifying U.S.–China competition in AI.
