Tech policy Memes

Oh look, it's the classic government approach to AI problems! Got a burning dumpster fire of technical debt and legacy systems? Just hose it down with taxpayer money and hope the flames turn into innovation! The two officials here are literally shoveling cash at what appears to be a raging inferno labeled "AI" like that's somehow going to magically solve everything. Because nothing says "well-thought-out technology strategy" quite like panic-funding without understanding the actual problem. Spoiler alert: throwing money at AI without proper infrastructure, talent, or strategy is like trying to water a plant with gasoline. Sure, you're giving it *something*, but you're probably just making the fire worse. But hey, at least the budget report will look impressive!
