According to sources with direct knowledge, Jancso revealed that Acceleratex had signed a partnership agreement with Palantir in 2024. According to someone's LinkedIn described as one of the co -founders of Acceleratex, Rachel YeeThe company seems to have received funding from the OpenAi Acnai 2 accelerator. Another of the co -founders of Acceleratesf, Kay Sorin, is now working for Openai, having joined the company several months after this hackathon. Sorin and Yee did not respond to requests for comments.
Jancso co -founder, Jordan Wick, a former Waymo engineer, has been an active member of DOGE, appearing in several agencies in recent months, in particular the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the National Labor Relations Board, the Labor Department and the Ministry of Education. In 2023, Jancso attended a hackathon Hosted by Scalai; Wired found that another Dogey member, Ethan Shaotran, also attended the same hackathon.
Since its creation in the early days of the second Trump administration, Dog has pushed the use of AI between agencies, even if it has sought to reduce tens of thousands of federal jobs. At Department of Veterans CombatorsA DOGE Partner suggested using AI to write code for the agency's website; At the General Services Administration, DOGE deployed the Gsasa; The group sought to automate the process of dismissal of government employees with a tool called Authorize; And A DOGE agent at the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development Use AI tools to examine and propose changes in regulations. But experts say that the deployment of AI agents to do the work of 70,000 people would be difficult, if not impossible.
A federal employee with knowledge of government contracts, who spoke to Wired on condition of anonymity because they were not allowed to speak to the press, says: “Many agencies have procedures that may differ considerably according to their own rules and regulations, and therefore the deployment of AI agents between large -scale agencies would probably be very difficult.”
Oren Etzioni, co -founder of the startup Ai Vercept, says that if AI agents can be good at doing certain things – such as using an Internet browser to do research – their results can still vary considerably and be very reliable. For example, customer service has agents have Nonexistent invented policies When you try to respond to user concerns. Even research, he says, requires a human to ensure that what spits are correct.
“We want our government to be something we can count on, as opposed to something that is on the edge of absolute bleeding,” explains Etzioni. “We don't need it to be bureaucratic and slow, but if companies have not yet adopted this, is the government really where we want to experiment with advanced AI?”
Etzioni says that AI agents are not important either 1-1 to replace jobs. The AI is rather able to do certain tasks or make others more effective, but the idea that technology could do the work of 70,000 employees would not be possible. “Unless you use funny mathematics,” he says, “no means.”
