For some reason, Elon hates old people, including Cobol and older adults. He wants to do it quickly, killing two birds with one stone. (lemmy.world)

even ChatGPT agrees this is stupid:

even his own Grok is against the idea:

Between this and the other instances of Elon's AI correctly calling a duck a duck (or rather, a Nazi a Nazi and a disinformation spreader a disinformation spreader), Elon might be able to replace himself with Grok as the head of DOGE and see significant improvements almost overnight.

Tbh, replacing our unhinged leadership with LLMs would probably make things a lot better in the near term, though not the mid or long term, as IME they tend to be way too cautious about things they shouldn't be and way too confident about things they shouldn't be.

In general, I agree with your conclusion. In this specific case with DOGE, I would argue otherwise.

Elon is overconfident about things he shouldn't be (which is everything) and not cautious about anything. With a LLM being dumb as hell and confidently wrong, that's actually not any worse than what we have now. If it somehow manages to be cautious about anything at all, it's an honest to goodness improvement.
