Elon Musk, the master of dramatic gestures, has pulled a ‘pulse check’ on federal employees that’s more like a heart attack. It’s not about efficiency; it’s a grand performance art piece to make us all question our own ‘pulse’. And here’s the twist: he expects a ‘pulse’ that doesn’t even need the help of his ‘stupid’ LLMs. Musk’s management style is so avant-garde, it’s almost like he’s trying to outdo the avant-garde! It’s a delightful mix of bureaucracy and absurdity, all served up with a side of ‘realism’ that’s more like ‘shock therapy’.
