David Sacks Appointed AI and Crypto Czar, Backed by Musk and Trump

Elon Musk mocked OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's congratulatory post on X regarding David Sacks' appointment as "White House AI and Crypto Czar" by President-elect Donald Trump, highlighting the ongoing rivalry between the two former allies. Musk's response with a laughing emoji underscores the tension between them, as Musk has been critical of OpenAI since leaving the company in 2018. Altman, however, expressed confidence that Musk wouldn't misuse his political influence against competitors, despite Musk's criticisms and legal actions against OpenAI.
