An AI to rewrite the law. The United States Government Efficiency Department (or Doge) has announced that it wanted to eliminate half of federal regulations (including decrees, regulations, orders and decrees applicable throughout the United States) by January 2026, according to information from the Washington Post. Of more than 200,000 federal rules considered “not required”, the agency considers that 100,000 of them can be eliminated.
Initially built by Elon Musk before he leaves the ship, the jug will bet on AI to help him in this task. Call “Doge AI deregulation decision tool” (translated by the “Doge Decision Making tool for deregulation”), an algorithm will be maneuvered to identify the texts to be eliminated.
“All tracks explored”
This massive purification of US regulations is a desire from the Trump government to desecrate the private sector. In the Washington Post, a White House spokesman said that “all clues would be explored” to achieve the objectives established in January 2026.
If the spokesman specifies that “no plan has still been approved or has received a green light,” the use of the promises to be a privileged track.
An already tested tool
And the Dux did not wait to present its solution. The “Doge AI Decregulation Decision tool” must be gradually implemented in American ministries. The agency has already begun to try its new tool.
In the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development of the United States, this algorithm was used by public officials. He helped them make more than “1,000 decisions about regulations” in just two weeks. It also served to write “100% of deregulation” in the Office of Consumer Protection in Financial Affairs.
Therefore, the Dux explains (according to its own data) that 93% of the human work time could be saved. However, a spokesman for the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development adds: “The objective of these innovations is not to replace the discretion and experience of the staff, but to complete the process.”
A premature implementation
Is it an enviable solution for changes in regulations to a regulation to an algorithm? In any case, the US government does not hide its madness with the use of AI.
On July 23, Donald Trump announced his great plan for AI. Then he affirmed his desire to “identify, review or repeal regulations, rules, memoranda, administrative orders and agreements between sites that unnecessarily hinder the development or deployment of AI.”
But some have been very unreliable, even lengthens the working time of public officials contrary to what the Dux claims. This was the case of Food and Medicines Administration (FDA), the US agency in charge of public health.
ELSA has established, an AI tool that is supposed to help employees accelerate the commercialization of new medications. But AI has hallucinated many times, inventing non -existent studies, which finally added verification work to agency officials.
