() Donald Trump Considers Elon Musk for AI Consultation in Potential Cabinet
Former President Donald Trump has expressed interest in having Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, serve as an advisor on U.S. competitiveness in artificial intelligence (AI) in a potential second Trump administration. Although Musk's commitments as CEO and CTO of his companies preclude a full-time cabinet role, Trump suggested that Musk could still consult on AI matters part-time. Musk, who has endorsed Trump's presidential bid and launched the super PAC America PAC to support his campaign, has shown support for this advisory role. This collaboration could significantly influence the U.S. strategy in AI development and its global competitiveness, particularly against China.
