President Donald Trump is expected to appoint Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton as his primary adviser on artificial intelligence, a role colloquially referred to as the "AI tsar." The decision, reported by a source familiar with the matter, would task Clayton with overseeing the administration's AI strategy.
Clayton currently serves as the head of the United States intelligence community, where he manages 18 different agencies. This appointment would consolidate significant oversight of national security and emerging technology policy under his existing leadership role.
