If it wasn't so destructive, it would be hilarious that he can only hire kids

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I don't know what's crazier. The fact that they let undergrads write government system or that they believe AI will somehow remediate these issues.
The fact that this government used LLM to generate that insane tariff policy or uses LLM to revoke stay for US citizens tells me how dumb all those people are.
It is also a lesson that being smart is definitively not a prerequisite to be a billionaire and likely quite the opposite.

Bingo! They just need to be ruthless narcissists with no empathy and money to continue buying their self-worth.
Get in, loser. We're vibe coding on government systems.
Yeah, I wasn't able to find any waste, fraud, or abuse, and rather than saving money like we promised, it turns out we're spending more money. Like a lot more. Like instead of saving a trillion dollars how I said we would, we've spent over two hundred billion more than last year in just a few months. Oh, and you know how we said your taxes would go down? Funny thing, they're actually going to go up - for you I mean, mine will weirdly go down still. And my companies will also do pretty well because of the government subsidies and all that. Oh, and it's pretty convenient that all of those investigations into my businesses randomly got dropped. Coincidental those investigations were under the same agencies where we imagined we'd find the most waste, fraud, and abuse. Good thing shutting them down without the authority to do so was much easier than actually proving any wrongdoing took place. Anyway, good luck getting a job if you're one of the many experienced government employees I fired. I know things are unusually rough right now, for some reason. Lots of people attacking the United States with bad trade deals out of nowhere, like how Ukraine attacked Russia so randomly. Good thing we're diverting so much money from those pointless social safety nets (I mean, they've never helped me) to put it toward additional warfare. That'll show all those countries who refuse to bend the knee. Oh, are you still here? Shouldn't you be working long hours for a slave wage somewhere?
Elon is really into young dudes for some reason.
My former micro-managing manager for some reason only ended up hiring people younger than him, even if the older people trying out were just as/more competent.
We felt it was his insecurities to feel like "the oldest" or most competent
Epstein probably woulve said something about him if he still alive, Ghislaine will know though, since she is epstein 2nd in command.
Great plan. Use AI trained on publicly available code to write functions for a completely private codebase to handle use-cases that exist nowhere in the private sector.
DOGE = not testing! Send to Prod!
HUD housing is already a shithole in most areas. I guarantee nobody on DOGE even understands what HUD does. I live in HUD housing because in on SSDI.
I’m going to be homeless soon, if I’m not disappeared before any changes happen to HUD.
So fucking stupid.
whose nephew is he
I don’t object to younger people writing the regs and laws.
I don’t trust Musk though, he’s not a smart person.
I do, they don't know what the fuck they are doing.
Inexperience and policy making are like trying to mix oil and water.
These inexperienced tech bros are not writing regs and laws, though. They're using generative AI to identify existing programs to gut. You are talking about legislative changes to keep up with the times and that's not what they are doing here, to the detriment of the whole country.
take advantage of desperate college graduates who need experience you mean.
Y'know, every day, I think I realize more and more that the guys doing generative AI search optimization are the real geniuses. If you can bake a biased statement into a gigantic model, I guess it's pretty difficult to ever get it out specifically.
