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 short-term measurable 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.
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.
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.
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.
All of DOGE “plans” seem like shit that was cooked up by immature teenagers and drug addled brains, because they are.
Elon and his team of ketamin demons
Looks like Musk is using the Japanize “drying river”-model that’s like starter lever shit in economics. Doing that on a society level is insanely stupid.
DOGE
Plan to Push AI Across the US Federal Governmentis Wildly Dangerous.Fixed that for you.
My grandpa loved shouting social security codes with their names, can you please do that while celebrating like he used to?
I bet it conveniently comes with a contract for xai. By a complete coincidence and definitely not more criminal behavior.
He’s looking more and more like Kim Jong Un by the day…
I don’t think even kim jong un looks as stupid as this guy on a regular basis.
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.
“Just test in prod” - Elongated Muskrat
He’s either
- an incompetent moron who thinks AI eventually will be like in the movies, you just need to push throught its teething pains,
- someone that tries to destroy the government and its services through weaponized incompetence, so they can be privatized,
- both, because I saw way too many things in real life.
That’s because he and his kind believe government is useless and can just be broken without losing anything important. From their point of view, government is just a thing that takes money from them and spends it on people who don’t deserve to live because they’re not asshole billionaire techbros. And it makes poor people’s lives slightly less unpleasant by giving them money and services, which billionaires don’t like because it makes the poor less desperate and exploitable.

kinda like racks of servers that keep a social media site used by 100s of millions of users? the ones muskrat just yanked willy-nilly out of a data center and loaded onto uhauls? it took weeks for twitter to repair that damage.
Link?
The government IS the test run.
Here’s how you know it’s not ready: AI hasn’t replaced a single CEO.
Man, I want to be at that shareholder meeting; “how about we just don’t have a CEO and pocket the savings?”
Then they’ll replace the board with AI. Guess who will control the AI?
This is a better start
Jesus Christ. Would someone just 80s arcade game kidnap him already and scare him aleady?
Do like the arcade machines and unplug 'em.
And
ifwhen 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
Its also just like. Its not there yet.
It cant make a full wine glass.
