The President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) for Trump's second term has unveiled its initial 15-member list, notably excluding leaders from major AI firms. Absent are figures like Elon Musk, OpenAI's Sam Altman, and Anthropic's Dario Amodei. Instead, the council features leaders from chip and infrastructure sectors, including Nvidia's Jensen Huang, AMD's Lisa Su, Oracle's Larry Ellison, and Dell's Michael Dell. This composition highlights a focus on industry experience and infrastructure expertise, aligning with the administration's emphasis on AI infrastructure in policy discussions. The council may expand to 24 members, advising on science, technology, economy, jobs, and national security.
