US DNI Jay Clayton tapped as White House AI czar, broadening tech policy role
Defense OneLO·US·about 20 hours ago
President Trump has appointed the Director of National Intelligence to also serve as an AI czar, tasked with delivering a risk-and-opportunity assessment within 120 days while retaining his current role. This dual-hatting signals an elevated national-security lens on AI policy, though the scope of authority and interagency coordination remain unclear. The move could accelerate AI governance actions but may face bureaucratic friction.
