OpenAI has named Dan Driscoll its Senior Counselor for National Security Modernization. He will advise the company on responsible AI for national security modernization, cyber resilience, and collaboration with U.S. allies. The company made the appointment public in an announcement that lists those three areas.

The announcement is brief. It does not say what the advisory work will involve day to day, who Driscoll will report to, or whether the role carries formal authority over products or policy. Read alone, it establishes the title and the three subject areas, and little else.

Why it matters

The appointment suggests OpenAI is building a dedicated government-facing role around national security and cyber resilience. That could shape how AI providers work with defense and allied governments.

How the story developed

  1. Adds that Driscoll is a former Army secretary.
