US President Donald Trump plans to appoint Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison and Jensen Huang to a council that will consider AI policy and other issues, the White House said on Wednesday.
The White House named an initial batch of 13 members from the industry, including Google co-founder Sergey Brin and AMD CEO Lisa Su.
According to an executive order issued in January last year, the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) may eventually consist of 24 people.
The council is expected to play a key role in shaping Washington’s response to intensifying global competition in artificial intelligence, particularly with China, where state-backed companies have advanced AI capabilities.
