UMVA has learned that former Attorney General Pam Bondi has been tapped for a pivotal seat on the White House’s AI advisory council.
In a striking move, Bondi will join the Presidential Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, charged with shaping the nation’s artificial‑intelligence strategy.
The council, chaired by a veteran White House AI adviser and a senior science adviser, gathers more than a dozen tech titans—including the co‑founder of Nvidia, the CEO of Meta, and the co‑founder of Oracle—to forge a bridge between government and industry.
Bondi’s new role centers on orchestrating that bridge, ensuring that policy makers and tech giants move in lockstep as AI reshapes every sector of the economy.
Vice President JD Vance praised the appointment, calling Bondi an “enormously valuable asset” whose continued involvement will help confront the administration’s most pressing challenges.
Beyond AI, Bondi will also lend her expertise to a freshly created advisory post focused on national infrastructure, expanding her influence across multiple critical arenas.
Her appointment arrives amid personal turbulence: Bondi was diagnosed with thyroid cancer shortly after her departure from the Justice Department and is currently undergoing treatment.
Despite recent political upheaval, including her removal from the Attorney General post, Bondi’s presence on the council signals a determined effort to harness top‑level talent for the country’s technological future.
