FULL STORY
Trump administration reveals new PCAST advisory board
Great and good of the tech industry are all included, from Huang to Ellison to
Zuckerberg
PCAST will advise the President on science and technology

The White House has named a new board of top technology leaders in order to
advise President Trump on future policy for science and technology.

The new Presidents Council of Advisors on Science and Technology ( PCAST )
includes a veritable who's-who of the technology landscape today, and will be
co-chaired by David Sacks and Michael Kratsios. Among its members are Nvidia
CEO Jensen Huang, AMD CEO Lisa Su, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Oracle executive
chairman Larry Ellison, Dell co-founder and CEO Michael Dell, and Google
co-founder Sergey Brin.  PCAST advisory board -- The initial 13
members, described as, "the Nations foremost luminaries in science and
technology", could soon be extended to 24 in the near future, an executive
order noted. 

The United States has the opportunity to lead the world in AI, Zuckerberg 
told The Wall Street Journal . Im honored to join the Presidents council and
work with other industry leaders to help make this happen. 

Exactly what PCAST will be doing still remains vague, but the order noted 
each President has established a similar advisory committee of scientists,
engineers, and industry leaders, starting with Franklin D. Roosevelt's 
Science Advisory Board in 1933. 

Information about its first meeting will be revealed soon, but the order 
noted PCAST will look to 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."

Notably, there's no room for Elon Musk, former golden boy of the Trump
administration, and founder of DOGE, which aimed to use technology such as AI
to cut out waste and unnecessary spending across the US government, although
its claims have proved largely unsuccessful so far. 

Musk left DOGE in May 2025 during a major falling-out with the Trump
administration. 

The launch is the latest technology roll-out from the White House as it looks
to cement its agenda in this area.

This includes the recently-proposed National AI Legislative Framework , a new
set of rules looking to avoid what Trump has previously slated to be a
"patchwork" of state laws and boost America's global dominance and
competitiveness in the AI sector. 

The White House also recently unveiled the administration's National Cyber
Strategy , outlining its plans for combating cybercrime. Beneath six policy
pillars, the document explains how the administration will respond to foreign
and domestic cyber threats, regulate cyberspace, secure government networks
and critical infrastructure, promote innovation, and build talent at home.
