Former White House Advisor: The Trump administration will not establish an AI approval regulatory agency.

The departing artificial intelligence advisor of the Trump administration stated that the president will not implement a formal AI licensing regulatory system; even if the White House is using emergency executive powers to restrict the deployment of cutting-edge large models. Sri Ram Krishnan, who stepped down from his White House position last month, said in his first in-depth interview, "The United States will not establish an AI-dedicated regulatory agency similar to the Food and Drug Administration." He added, "This administration, from day one, has been against burdensome, harsh, and bureaucratic red tape. We will not be acting as industry judges, arbitrarily determining winners and losers." Krishnan stated that if a centralized regulatory agency is established, requiring companies to have a large number of legal personnel to release AI models, it will only "block and slow down the pace of development in the artificial intelligence industry." "Under the Trump presidency, this regulatory model will definitely not be implemented." This statement came weeks before the U.S. government, for national security reasons, implemented unprecedented intervention measures: forcing Anthropic to withdraw its strongest model, Mythos, and postponing the release of the OpenAI 5.6 large model.
