Michael Kratsios backs open-source AI and one national rulebook, while proposing AI-powered labs and a 2028 quantum computing goal.
At Y Combinator Startup School, White House science and technology director Michael Kratsios explained why he returned to public service: government policy can unlock technologies and preserve U.S. leadership. He said the White House supports both open- and closed-source AI, and argued that Washington must hear from startups, not just major tech firms. Because AI changes rapidly, he cautioned against rigid rules, citing the EU AI Act as an example of regulation written before ChatGPT. Kratsios favored one national AI standard over conflicting state laws, and described reducing barriers for drones and supersonic flight. He also outlined a new science report proposing AI-enabled autonomous labs, faster grants, and agency action plans within 90 days. Looking ahead, he highlighted quantum computing, including a Department of Energy goal to build a scientifically relevant quantum computer by 2028. He urged Congress to address state-law preemption and creators’ rights without legislating too quickly.
