The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) led by Elon Musk is having over 1,000 federal workers use a chatbot called GSAi, reported tech outlet Wired
The Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has released the GSAi chatbot to workers of the U.S. General Services Administration, reported tech outlet Wired.
Around 1,500 workers can now use the GSAi chatbot whose default model is Claude Haiku 3.5, while other options include Claude Sonnet 3.5 v2 and Meta LLaMa 3.2, per the outlet.
The new AI chatbot is meant to help users draft emails, summarise text, or even create code, according to an internal memo.
The introduction of the GSAi chatbot comes as DOGE continues to gut federal workforce numbers as part of its “efficiency” drive under Musk.
The deployment of GSAi is raising concerns that experienced workers are being replaced by a chatbot that is still in development and is not designed to safely process federal work information and personal data yet.
