David Sacks has completed his 130-day term as special White House adviser on cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence under President Donald Trump. He will now serve as co-chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST), shaping national policy across critical technology sectors.
During his tenure, Sacks led key initiatives including the release of a 166-page crypto regulatory report and the rollout of a national AI framework in March. He played a central role in advancing the stablecoin-focused GENIUS Act and continues advocating for the CLARITY Act to reform digital asset regulation.
PCAST will bring together top tech leaders to unify federal and state technology policy. Sacks emphasized the need for a single national rulebook for AI, warning that fragmented state-by-state regulations stifle innovation.
"The problem we're seeing is 50 different states regulating in 50 different ways," Sacks said. "The president has called for one rulebook."
Joining Sacks on PCAST are Nvidia’s Jensen Huang, Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, AMD’s Lisa Su, Oracle’s Larry Ellison, Marc Andreessen of a16z, Dell Technologies’ Michael Dell, and Coinbase co-founder Fred Ehrsam, the only crypto-native member.
