During an interview with Bloomberg, billionaire investor David Sacks confirmed that he is no longer the "AI and Crypto Czar."
What's the Scoop:
- Stepping Down: David Sacks in no longer the White House Special Advisor for AI and Crypto. Earlier this week, Sacks was appointed co-chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.
- Unclear Reasoning: Although Sacks says he completed 130 days as a special government employee (SGE), the exact reasoning behind his departure remains a mystery. While SGEs are limited to working no more than 130 days within any 365-day period, nothing prohibits role extensions or reappointments.
DAVID SACKS no longer AI and Crypto Czar, he said in an interview with Bloomberg. Sacks ran out of his 130 days as a special government employee. He didn't count the days consecutively, but they were set to end eventually. He'll now only be co-chair of science and tech council
