Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency are attempting to enact what some experts have called the “largest job cut in American history“—but don’t worry, these geniuses have a solution to pick up the significant amount of slack caused by letting go of tens of thousands of domain experts and civil servants all at once: a chatbot.
According to Wired, DOGE has given about 1,500 employees at the US General Services Administration, the agency that manages federal real estate and oversees most government contracts, access to a proprietary chatbot called GSAi.
Is it OK for me to say that I have violent fantasies about Elon Musk? If I ever met him it would take real self control not to harm him
You’re not the only one.
lol I bet this idiocy is even beyond Putin’s wildest dreams.
proprietary chatbot
this won’t end well.
It’s just an open source bot that Elon had his people wrap in a script that randomly replaces its actual answer with “Elon Rules! 🎸🎶”.
So, now it’s “proprietary” and he can charge the government 3X what we had been paying the fired people.So, what, we’re just full blown speedrunning the apocalypse now, huh?
Where do I buy stock in the federal government. That shits going to the moon!
I know you jest, but treasury bonds…
How do I short this?

She’s actually invisible to them.
