Left the Pentagon after a conflict. J.D. Vance's friend moves to AI giant

Driscoll, a veteran of the Iraq War, resigned from the U.S. Department of Defense amid concerns about military readiness and conflicts with Pete Hegseth. He reportedly complained to Trump about Hegseth's actions, leading to Trump siding with the Secretary. Driscoll will now work with OpenAI to develop initiatives for democratic artificial intelligence and improve national security. OpenAI has already provided cyber defense solutions to several European countries and expanded its collaboration with the Pentagon for secret AI applications after failed negotiations with competitor Anthropic.
