WASHINGTON, November 6, 2026 — The Trump administration cancelled a meeting of a high-profile White House tech advisory panel that includes Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang and Meta chief executive Mark Zuckerberg, Reuters reported.
In a post on X, Reuters said an Energy Department spokesperson confirmed the meeting was scrapped on Friday. The panel has been described in US coverage as linked to advising President Donald Trump’s “Super Intelligence” task force on artificial intelligence and advanced technology.
Neither Reuters’ alert nor secondary reports reviewed here gave a detailed public explanation for the cancellation. The Washington Examiner noted the scrap came after midterm election results that delivered Congress to Democrats, a political shift that may reshape technology and AI oversight fights in Washington.
Huang and Zuckerberg are among the most influential executives in chips and social platforms, and their presence on a White House-linked council had signalled an effort to keep leading AI companies close to administration priorities on compute, energy and regulation.
Cancelling the session does not by itself dissolve the advisory body, but it delays a public show of engagement between the White House and Big Tech at a moment when markets are also digesting a broader tech-share sell-off and debates over AI infrastructure spending.
Energy Department notices briefly listed alternative dates in some tracking databases before those were pulled, according to federal-register style listings cited in secondary coverage — underscoring the fluid scheduling around the panel.
For Nvidia and Meta, the optics matter less than policy outcomes on chip export controls, data-centre power and content regulation. For the White House, keeping or pausing such meetings is a signal of how it intends to manage Silicon Valley after an electoral setback.
No replacement meeting date was confirmed in the Reuters post. Officials may reschedule quietly or wait until the post-midterm cabinet and legislative calendar settles.
