It's always astounding there are people on slashdot saying stuff like this. Guess it comes down to one or more of the following
1. They don't understand the technology - usually see people comparing LLMs to Markov generators and the like
2. They've never used the technology or seen demonstrations by third parties
3. They're unable to consider uses. Even if you can only imagine LLMs being bullshit generators, there's a huge demand for bullshit of different types.
4. They're afraid of the technology and don't want to admit it exists

So the republican solution is to eliminate the income tax because it's too easily defrauded (mostly by rich people due to underfunding the IRS) and replace it with a sales tax with exclusions for income? Well it's not the dumbest idea I've heard, but it's certainly up there. Guess the cuts to education are hitting the math skills of people on the right hard

If Trump were doing anything about the deficit then you might have a point, but he's suggesting increasing it through tax cuts and has implemented cuts to the IRS (meaning we're not even collecting all the money that's owed). Shows it's not a serious priority and I would expect to see the deficit skyrocket as the economy collapses

I don't think anyone is arguing that eliminating the department of education is bad because Trump is doing it, they're saying it's bad because it'll have a negative effect on education (especially in red states). The ED doesn't have a ton of control over schools anyways, it mostly manages and distributes funds and runs special programs.

The most TDS I've seen is MAGAs that believe Trump can do no wrong and anything he does is brilliant without any basis on reality.
