They’re planning on deploying dubious crappy AI in federal government systems.
Trump’s Diversion Tactics Stay Focused on the Hostile Takeover of the U.S. Government Olga Lautman Feb 05, 2025 Musk’s operatives are illegally copying and storing government data, giving him unprecedented access to millions of Americans’ financial records, Social Security numbers, tax filings, and potentially classified agency files. Meanwhile, Thomas Shedd, a Musk associate now in charge of the General Services Administration’s (GSA) Technology Transformation Services (TTS), has openly admitted that the administration plans to widely deploy AI throughout government systems. Shedd told government tech workers that they must “alter” Login.gov, the federal system used to access Social Security, Medicare, and IRS records. Employees immediately flagged this as an illegal task, yet Musk’s team is still moving forward.
My letter to reps:
I don’t want AI running government systems. It has a proven track record of being unreliable, and it’s a waste of power.
