Gavard Gavin Newo organizes a press conference in Los Angeles this week until Turn off the reception of artificial intelligence to improve the effectiveness of the state government.

These are a lot of boring things, so the Newsom Goses Value, contrasting with the California AI program with President Donald Trump of the Federal Services through his Ministry of Government Efficiency, led by previous friend, industrialist and inventor Elon Musk.

“I could easily get here with sunglasses and cutters – you know where I am going – and caught your attention,” Newsom told reporters. “We are Dog, but better.”

He took another Trump and Musk pot, saying, “They didn’t come closer to the savings they claimed. I think it’s very harmful.”

Newsom’s remarks on Trump, Musk and Dog are his latest political repositioning, by a raw critic after Trump has taken the White House to make a pleasant Trump as the state is looking for $ 40 billion for reimbursement to reimburse Funny prominent pro-Trump figures In his new podcast and now Restoring the role of chief resistor After taking heat from other Democrats for coziness to TrumpS

Newsom Contrasting Doge with AI in California is not just a metaphorical area. Whether the latter will lead to an existential improvement in the state government’s efficiency is open to question.

“Genai is here,” NEWSOM said of generative AI, “and it grows in importance every day. We know that the government of the state can be more effective and since the birthplace of technology is natural that California leads to this space. In Golden State, it is for the sake of being with the work of service, but to save the dollars To better serve all Californians. “

The initial employment of the new state technology will help improve traffic congestion, traffic safety and services at the Ministry of Tax and Fees Administration, he said.

Will he do it?

The regret of the state for Application of Information Technology Before the advent of AI as a tool, it requires skepticism.

Although Newsom wrote ”Citizenville“A book that promotes technology as a transformative factor in the government, state technology projects did not do well during its rule, with the essentially continuing record failures and failures than they began many years ago.

There is another aspect of Newsom’s new embrace of AI, which is also alarming because of the state record of the state for technology – a change in the way the state implements AI projects that could make it difficult for legislators and the public to know if they are promised as promised.

Accidentally or not, as Newsom announced AI in Los Angeles, the budget analyzer of the legislature issues a Report that it raises red flags.

The topic is a leader for max, but basically the state changes the way it approves certain types of technological projects.

It uses a negotiation and implementation process aimed at providing a complete picture of technological projects, as it is looking for funds from the legislature, but the new Newsom process will carry out projects in phases and “some information is currently available… as the common project system, while the other base, schedule may not be so easy (in the new system) Legite.

Implicitly, LAO’s report warns the legislature that the shortcomings of the project may not be known until it is too late to stop its adoption. “Therefore, in order to help the legislature evaluate and understand the new process in a more reasonable time frame, we recommend that the legislature requires reporting completed project planning activities and to limit the new process to a small subgroup of projects (with additional reporting) in the next fiscal year.”

Although it may be, a change in implementation can lead to even more technological disasters than maintaining the current process.
