Trump likely to pick Jay Clayton for AI czar, sources say
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump signaled he is considering Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton for a new White House AI czar role, expecting to choose someone within three or four days.
- Trump floated the appointment following a White House meeting with tech executives, where participants discussed industry self-regulation and the president's proposed "AI Force" to manage evolving technology.
- Clayton, who already oversees 18 intelligence agencies, argued against pausing development, claiming that stopping U.S. innovation would let "the rest of the world develop these models."
- While Clayton brushed aside questions about accepting the czar position, he defended industry self-regulation against Senator Elizabeth Warren's Tuesday criticism that it was "a recipe for disaster."
- The White House signed an executive order requiring federal agencies to use "Super Intelligence" instead of AI, directing officials to propose legislative definitions for the technology within 60 days.
