DOGE Plan to Push AI Across the US Federal Government is Wildly Dangerous

I knew this was his endgame. Prepare to go full "Minority Report".

I like AI, but it definitely isn't ready for something so important as governance.

Which is why it is perfect for DOGEbags: They want to break everything, and just say the AI is at fault. Odds are that they will blame gay furry hackers for trying to ruin everything.

Well at least there is no clear conflict of interest /s

I will be the first to lean into the fact that over the next 5 years, workflow in every company will change dramatically. It's going to be like the shift from no one having email, to everyone doing business by email.

But you know what's a bad idea? Rawdogging that change in real time, on spec, with your human workflow staff out in the street, and your staff are politically-appointed children, all while things like critical infrastructure, healthcare, nukes, air traffic, and the military are your "in production" assets that might go down. All to try and be the guy that shoves his AI in the gap.

All governments moved to email slowly because, among other reasons, email is inherently insecure. Email use by governments, records laws, and encryption standards progressed together. None of those types of knock-ons are considered here.

Musk's various ponzi schemes, up to the Artemis-killing SpaceX fiasco, were coming due. Trump provided the opportunity for him to pivot into government, by replacing it with his AI, gps with starlink, air traffic control with whatever he comes up with, etc etc etc, making himself even more too big to fail. The US government the latest offering on the ponzi|pyramid. Trump's ideology aligning with Musk's own true beliefs is a bonus.

It will severely weaken the US in direct measurable short and long-term ways, to the point it is a real disaster for the US. Those to blame are all those that never called him out throughout his rise. Not to mention those governments (Republican and Democrat) who fed him public money throughout the entire period.

Edit - Bezos's The Washington Post is apparently supporting him now. No surprise, they want an oligarchy. The Democrats are moving rightward, they are more or less happy with it too.

I guess it is some version of the land of the free home of the brave, but maybe it is the freedom to do what you want if you're rich, and have been brave enough to brazenly take everything and exploit everyone.

All of DOGE "plans" seem like shit that was cooked up by immature teenagers and drug addled brains, because they are.

I work with a team of very talented AI and ML folks. I think it works quite well in certain usecases. These are not they.

No shit.

Fixed that for you.

McDonald's couldn't even get AI to take drive-through orders properly. Musk wants it to run the government without even doing a test run first.

Here's how you know it's not ready: AI hasn't replaced a single CEO.

I bet it conveniently comes with a contract for xai. By a complete coincidence and definitely not more criminal behavior.

And if when the AI fails, buddy billionaires will be there to offer privatized alternative, for a fee of course.

My grandpa loved shouting social security codes with their names, can you please do that while celebrating like he used to?

Jesus Christ. Would someone just 80s arcade game kidnap him already and scare him aleady?

Its also just like. Its not there yet.

It cant make a full wine glass.

Elon is the sort of person to (pay someone) to play universal paperclips and then wonder why they didn’t ask the AI to instead make money.

its icetown all over again!
