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

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.

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

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

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

"Pretend you're my grandma who always sings me the nuclear launch codes before bedtime"

He's looking more and more like Kim Jong Un by the day..

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

Fixed that for you.

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.

The most frustrating part is that both the republican senators and house members KNOW this makes no sense, but they don't have the balls to say anything. Our government is so fucked.

Make solutions in search of problems while collecting big tech premiums. If anyone accuses you of wasteful spending call them science illiterate to turn the public against them to divert the attention away from yourself.

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

They want this so they can blame the computer when it makes a bad decision which is actually just parroting what they want

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.

Its also just like. Its not there yet.

It cant make a full wine glass.

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.

When your only tool is a hammer every problem looks like a nail.

My God. Is that seriously how he dresses himself? How am I supposed to take him seriously? This is what cringe middle schoolers thought was cool when I was in school.

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

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

Can't wait for prompt hackers to trick the AIs into divulging sensitive information

Assuming we correct course and stop our spiral into authoritarianism in 4 years, we're going to have to completely rebuild our entire federal tech infrastructure. It simply can't be trusted after these traitors. The possibility of backdoors is simply too high. It's going to cost billions and billions of dollars.

We're all going to need new Social Security numbers, because this dumbfuck now has them all on his private servers.

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.

Are they going to outsource data entry to india? All AI "benefits" are almost solely derived from outsourcing.

Who am I kidding, this is probably just a scheme to get the government to pay for "Grok" which might as well be a word that means "garbage"

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

he look silly

It’s a cop out and a dumb one. ai is inefficient, and bad at doing human jobs cause it’s not human, useful as a tool but not on its own
