The US technology policy sector is undergoing significant adjustments. Recently, Michael Kratsios, a researcher at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (Stanford HAI), was appointed as the Director of the White House Office of Technology Policy, and will also serve as the incoming Presidential Technology Advisor for the Trump administration. This appointment has garnered widespread attention, marking the growing influence of top AI researchers on national technology policy.
