🇺🇸🚀 SOME NEWS: I'll be leaving my role at the White House at the end of this month. After a break I’ll be working on helping tackle some of the large challenges facing America on AI (more on that later).

It is hard to express how big a privilege it has been to serve the American people and how grateful I am to have had the opportunity to do so.

First and foremost, it has been an honor to serve under President @realDonaldTrump . Without his leadership, we would not be leading in the AI race.

Second, I owe a lot to the person I’ve worked mostly closely with over the last 18 months - @DavidSacks . His continuing advocacy for America winning on AI has been and continues to be crucial.

Some key public accomplishments from last year I’m proud of

1. Architecting and publishing the American AI Action Plan - charting the course for America to win on AI and helping execute on that for the last year.

2. The AI acceleration partnerships to help American AI stack win globally.

3. The National AI Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence executive order (forming the basis for working with the Hill this year)

4. Advocating for the American AI stack with our allies globally (the AI summits in France and India, state visits to the UK, the Middle East and more)

So what’s next?

The past 18 months have given me a front row seat to this critical moment on AI facing America and our allies. Whether it is energy, data centers or a clear path for Americans to experience the benefits of AI, there are many tough issues we all need to navigate together. I plan on building institutions that help tackle some of those challenges for America and its allies.

I want to thank many others who have helped along the way in the administration : Kevin Hassett, @mkratsios47 , CoS @SusieWiles47 , VP @JDVance , @StevenCheung47 , Sec Bessent, Sec Lutnick, Sec Rubio and @jacobhelberg , @USWREMichael , Will Scharf, Taylor Budowich, @JamesBlairUSA , @elonmusk and many, many others. You know who you are and I know I’ll continue to see you a lot more.

Most of all, I want to thank @aarthir on supporting everything and being part of this unexpected but amazing journey from last January. None of this would be possible without her.

This journey has been the privilege of a lifetime and shown me how special this country is and how it needs all of us to contribute in anyway we can - and I plan on continuing to do just that.

David Sacks@DavidSacks

Thank you @sriramk for this generous post. It has been one of the great privileges of my time in the Administration to work so closely with you over the past 18 months. Your skills are genuinely unique: a rare combination of deep technical fluency in AI, sharp policy instincts, exceptional strategic thinking, and true diplomatic talent. It will be a huge loss for the administration, but I’m glad we’ll continue working together with you as an outside adviser.

We've accomplished a lot together, and this feels like the right moment to recap some of the key milestones: * You co-authored the Administration’s AI Action Plan, our comprehensive strategy for winning the AI race. * You helped drive the AI Acceleration Partnerships that are positioning the American AI stack to compete and win globally. * You played a key role in the National AI Policy Framework (executive order and policy document), which is now the foundation for discussions with Congress on a national approach to AI regulation instead of a chaotic patchwork of state rules. * You helped deliver the Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government executive order, which ensures that federally procured AI systems prioritize neutrality and truth-seeking over ideological bias and capture. * You advanced American interests at the AI Summits in France and India and through state visits to the UK, the Middle East, and beyond.

As AI Czar, it has been a huge honor for me to work for President Trump as he provides the clear leadership and vision for American AI dominance. His policies have put America in the lead in the AI race: supporting innovation, unleashing energy abundance, building out infrastructure, pushing back against unnecessary regulation, enabling American exports, and promoting re-industrialization.

Sriram was a key partner in turning these priorities into action. And as he said, this was a true team effort with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, NEC Director Kevin Hassett, OSTP Director Michael Kratsios, Secretary Rubio, Secretary Bessent, Secretary Lutnick, and too many others to mention.

Thank you again Sriram for your service. You made a huge difference. I’m sorry to see you go but grateful for the work we’ve done together and looking forward to what comes next.

A mysterious meme token has recently caught my attention…

Was it launched by members of the Pi community?

Or is there something much bigger happening behind the scenes? 👀

The number being discussed is $3.14.

Some believe this token was created to achieve the value and recognition that many Pi supporters have been waiting for.

The message seems simple:

“Never underestimate the power of a community.”

Maybe this is the community’s way of showing Nicolas Kokkalis the true value of the millions of people standing behind the Pi ecosystem.

📊 Max Supply: 314,000,000 🔥 LP Burned 🔒 Ownership Renounced 💎 100,000,000 Tokens Locked (according to on-chain records) 💎 Remaining locked tokens cannot be moved, withdrawn, or reclaimed until the lock conditions expire.

Is this simply a gift to the Pi community?

Or could Nicolas Kokkalis or members of the Pi Core Team be connected to it?

Nobody knows for sure…

Time will reveal the truth.

One thing is certain:

When the Pi community moves together, the entire crypto market pays attention.

@DavidSacks @sriramk His whole tenure, Sriram was subjected to constant racist attacks from people who don’t amount to anything or do anything to improve the country, and not once did he lash out in resentment. Very few people can ever do that in this way. A giant in character (not just stature!).

America's been lucky to have Sriram: a sharp, knowledgeable, thoughtful person who engages with respect and curiosity with opposing positions. All our nations should be so lucky, and as someone more on the AI risk side, we should be so lucky with our critics.

I've learned a lot from our interactions. One thing especially: as the stakes rise around all of these issues, the importance of maintaining kindness and mutual respect in one's interactions will become even greater. Can't wait to see what he does next.

(Sriram, sorry we didn't manage to get coffee at the India Summit, but hopefully we'll cross paths soon on the circuit).
