Summary
Elon Musk’s DOGE has hired 21-year-old undergraduate Christopher Sweet to help revise Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regulations using AI, despite his lack of government experience.
Internal emails describe Sweet’s role as an “AI computer programming quant analyst” tasked with identifying housing rules to relax or eliminate.
Critics say DOGE hires inexperienced tech workers to dismantle agencies under the guise of reform, aligning with Trump’s Project 2025 agenda.
Musk admitted DOGE has made frequent errors and failed to cut promised spending, with federal expenditures already up $220 billion compared to early 2024.
If it wasn’t so destructive, it would be hilarious that he can only hire kids
Get in, loser. We’re vibe coding on government systems.
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!
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.
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.
