‘AI & Crypto Czar’ David Sacks Refutes Forbes Report
David Sacks took to X on December 21 to clarify his role remains the same as he requested. The incoming AI and crypto czar said he will have a leadership role in establishing policies and regulations for technologies, such as AI and crypto.
Earlier today, Fortune reported that the AI and crypto czar role initially expected to be a cut-and-dry leadership role is set to be more of a general advisory position. The legacy media cited two people familiar with the inner workings of the Trump Vance transition team. The reason for scaling back the role was reported to be David Sacks not divesting from his investment firm Craft Ventures.
“Not divesting, not taking a more formal government role, that makes it very complicated. Even if Trump and people in his administration usually see conflicts of interest as an afterthought, the situation with Sacks became an issue, even from a practical perspective,” as per the report.
However, Sacks said, “This is total nonsense.” Also, he expects to spend 50% of his time in Washington D.C. directing policy. The remaining 50% in Silicon Valley staying on the cutting edge technological advancements, he added. This is in line with what David Sacks requested.
