President Trump is turning to some of the biggest names in Silicon Valley—including Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Oracle executive chairman Larry Ellison and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang—to help guide U.S. policy on AI and other key technologies through a new White House advisory council. A press release from the Office of Science and Technology Policy said the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, or PCAST, “brings together the Nation’s foremost luminaries in science and technology to advise the President and provide recommendations on strengthening American leadership in science and technology.” It added that the council will focus on topics “related to the opportunities and challenges that emerging technologies present to the American workforce, and ensuring all Americans thrive in the Golden Age of Innovation.” Each president since Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1933 has established a PCAST advisory committee of scientists, engineers, and industry leaders, the press release said. Notably absent are OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, any executives from Microsoft, and Tesla, SpaceX and xAI CEO Elon Musk, who previously led the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
