ChatGPT got sassy with me and told me "human hope is adorable" when I asked it about my favorite college football team's prospects this season. It offered me tips for "petty human revenge" when my cat wakes me up in the middle of the night. And then, with a couple of clicks, it changed its tone to be sympathetic and earnest.

The Trump Administration’s Department of Government Efficiency has been a project largely defined by ever-diminishing expectations. At the outset of DOGE’s journey, its chief operator, Elon Musk, famously claimed, in a bout of wild optimism, that he hoped to cut “at least” $2 trillion out of the federal budget. Not long after the election, Musk reduced his ambitions to $1 trillion. Throughout the first few months of Trump’s second term, DOGE claimed to be saving Americans billions, but analyses
