Ignoring all of the absolutely insane things about that job description. Do they have a list of clients I can access, so I can avoid using any of their products? The first time I get a phone call from an AI bot starting with "I see you

Virtually every piece of information you submit on the internet is logged and monitored anyway, for purposes of advertising, state surveillance, and occasionally to improve the products.

I don't really see the value proposition for the iPad Pro. It's got powerful hardware, but I can't imagine myself doing any heavy work on a tablet.

There'd probably be a few liability concerns at scale. Like if you made a replacement board for a Keurig to allow aftermarket k-cups, it'd likely be a matter of time before Keurig sued you, or someone burnt their house down.

I wonder if there'd be a cottage industry for new control boards which de-shittify IOT devices but keep their functionality. Like buy the bed, and then buy a little pre-programmed ESP32 logic board to replace the factory board.

The world’s richest man is gutting the regulatory bodies which were designed to keep him in check, and you’re defending it. I’d say you’ve drank the Kool-aid.

What's wrong? Let me count the ways. - Much of the spending they're eliminating is good and important (E.g. USAID). - The way they're cutting is reckless (They accidentally fired nuclear safety workers). - Many of the workers

I could go into details (What are they doing to ensure data privacy? Can/do they exfiltrate data and run it through external AI models? What kind of security clearances do the children of DOGE have?). But just on the surface, Elon has

That might work if you're slashing headcount at a social media company (though I would argue that it doesn't), but the stakes are a bit higher when you're responsible for things like feeding hungry people, curing disease, or

Government spending is mostly already public information. Ironically, it's DOGE itself which is trying it's best to act in secrecy.

I would argue that developing those recommendations is a "safety critical" task. Especially given that just in the past few days they accidentally fired, then re-hired, a bunch of nuclear weapons safety workers.

It's well documented that DOGE uses AI, and Musk has tweeted that SpaceX will be overhauling the FAA as well. It's pretty realistic to think they will (or already do) use xAI for critical processes.
