White House AI and crypto ‘czar’ David Sacks discuss President Donald Trump’s executive order blocking state-level AI rules and pushing for a single national standard on “Kudlow.”
White House artificial intelligence and crypto czar David Sacks on Tuesday called on blue states to insert “woke” ideology into artificial intelligence as the Trump administration moves to trim what he described as “unnecessary” regulations on the fast-developing technology.
“In terms of some of these unnecessary regulations, look a state like Coloradothey have banned something they call algorithmic discrimination. This means that if an AI model creates what they call a disparate impact on a protected group, that is illegal. And not only the company making the decision is responsible, but also the AI developer. How are they supposed to know all the ways their AI model is going to be used?” he told “Kudlow.”
Sacks continued, accusing left-wing ideologues of finding ways to force developers to add a “DEI layer” to their models to avoid creating a “disparate impact” on protected groups.

“This is a very serious matter First Amendment Concerns“, he said.
“We don’t like to see blue states trying to insert their woke ideology into AI models, and we really want to try to stop that.”
Sacks also criticized state politicians for exploiting concerns about AI to introduce them new regulationsnoting that these measures are being shaped by “horror stories” that have yet to be backed up by data.

“It’s very much a knee-jerk reaction, and we don’t need 1,000 tickets at the state level,” he said.
“That just tells you how disproportionate this reaction is.”
Sacks said heading over child safety concerns remains an important priority as the administration builds a future framework for AI as the technology continues to advance.
