Top Trump administration AI safety official Chris Fall has left after just three months on the job, according to a Commerce Department spokesperson.<\/p>\n

Fall, who was director of the Center for AI Standards and Innovation, has been at the center of the federal government’s voluntary review process of frontier AI models. CAISI is a Commerce Department agency that functions as a key point of contact for industry and spearheads commercial AI testing and research.<\/p>\n

His departure comes as the White House and lawmakers across the country grapple with how to regulate the emerging technology.<\/p>\n

“Following Chris’s departure, NIST Director Dr. Arvind Raman will continue to oversee CAISI and will serve as Acting CAISI Director,” the spokesperson told POLITICO, which, like Business Insider, is a part of the Axel Springer Global Reporters Network.<\/p>\n

Raman is also leading the search for a new permanent CAISI director to be announced in the coming weeks, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick wants somebody with deep knowledge and expertise on AI, a Commerce official granted anonymity to discuss personnel issues said.<\/p>\n

After Commerce slapped export controls on Anthropic in June, Fall was closely involved in discussions with top Anthropic executives about how to restore access to the company’s advanced Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models, POLITICO previously reported.<\/p>\n

He was appointed to lead CAISI in April and was a Department of Energy official during Trump’s first term.<\/p>\n

Axios previously reported details of Fall’s departure.<\/p>\n
