AI adviser Sriram Krishnan has announced he will leave the administration at the end of June, becoming the latest in a series of departures from President His exit follows a string of high-profile resignations this year, including Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer and National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent.
Serving in the administration had been “the privilege of a lifetime,” he wrote, thanking Trump for what he described as leadership that helped position the United States at the forefront of artificial intelligence development.
“It has been an honor to serve under President Trump,” Krishnan wrote. “Without his leadership, we would not be leading in the AI race. ” Krishnan also thanked White House AI and crypto adviser David Sacks, whom he credited as a key influence on the administration’s technology agenda. According to reporting by The Washington Post, Krishnan helped shape the administration's American AI Action Plan, which sought to reduce regulatory barriers and expand AI-related infrastructure across the country.
His departure comes as the administration considers a potentially expanded role for the federal government in the AI sector, with The Independent reporting that Trump is weighing the possibility of the U.S. government acquiring stakes in artificial intelligence companies. Krishnan’s departure follows a series of resignations and exits from the Trump administration this year, across multiple departments and agencies.

She said she could not continue in such a demanding role while he undergoes treatment.
Banks stepped down from his role amid wider leadership changes within the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement structure, having taken on the role when Trump returned to office in January 2025. His departure comes as the White House continues to reshape senior positions across border security agencies as part of its immigration agenda. Lyons stepped down from his role at Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the end of May to transition into the private sector.
Federal officials confirmed his departure from government service, with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin praising Lyons as “a great leader of ICE” and highlighting his contribution to the administration’s immigration enforcement efforts. Kent resigned in March in what was widely seen as a high-profile departure linked to policy disagreements. In his resignation letter, he said he could not “in good conscience” support the administration’s war in Iran, arguing that Iran “posed no imminent threat” to the United States.
After his resignation, Trump sharply rejected Kent’s assessment, telling reporters it wasChavez-DeRemer resigned as labor secretary in April, becoming one of the most senior officials to exit Trump’s Cabinet this year, amid allegations reported by The Associated Press such as an alleged affair with a subordinate and drinking alcohol while on duty. Her departure made her the third Trump Cabinet member to step down in recent months, following the exits of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in March and Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Bovino became a nationally known figure during Operation Metro Surge in Minnesota, which drew intense scrutiny following the deaths of Renée Good and Alex Pretti during separate federal immigration enforcement incidents. He defended the operation amid protests and investigations before later leaving his post. Krishnan's departure leaves the administration without one of its most prominent technology advisers at a time when artificial intelligence remains a major White House priority.
His exit also adds to a growing list of departures across national security, immigration and Cabinet-level positions during Trump's second term.
