OpenAI taps former US army secretary Dan Driscoll for national security role
- On Monday, OpenAI appointed former Army Secretary Dan Driscoll as senior counselor for national security modernization, a newly created role focused on enhancing cybersecurity and artificial intelligence capabilities.
- Driscoll joins OpenAI following his resignation from the Pentagon earlier this year, which occurred after months of tension with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
- President Trump tasked Driscoll with diplomatic efforts in Moscow and Kyiv to help end the war in Ukraine, a rare assignment for an Army secretary that brought him prominence outside the Pentagon.
- "I'm joining OpenAI to help the United States and our allies put this technology to work responsibly, for the people who keep us safe," Driscoll said in a statement.
- He will engage with government, industry, and academic stakeholders to advance what OpenAI terms "democratic AI" while helping internal teams understand operational needs of national security organizations.
