Original title: DOGE is reportedly pushing an AI tool that would put half of all federal regulations on a 'delete list'


"The tool is targeting regulations that are no longer required by law..."

seems reasonable - I wonder if a similar approach could identify laws no longer required by reality, laws/regulations that have no or negative effects, and/or laws/regs that are obsoleted by more recent laws/regs/rulings.


I can barely get a model to refactor a 20 file repo without it catastrophically breaking it.

Reviewing an entire country's laws and regulations I have 0.00% doubt the AI isn't up to it. And there is no way a person is going to review 100k regulations. These are just going to get canned, and the little person will suffer.

I also wouldn't trust the model creator to make it mark key regulations for deletion, ones the author is ready to take advantage of...says the cynic in me.


Only half?
