The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) built an AI tool to delete thousands of federal rules. Trump and Musk are involved.
🚨 Breaking News:
DOGE’s new AI tool is reviewing 200,000+ regulations to wipe out half by Trump’s first-year anniversary.
⚡Wire Simplified
The tool is already rewriting rules at HUD and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
It looks for outdated regulations the government no longer needs by law.
The White House hasn’t officially approved it but says the DOGE team is “the best and brightest.”
Elon Musk helped lead DOGE early on.
A past AI tool from DOGE once made up contract numbers so, not flawless.
✔️Straight to the Point
DOGE is using AI to slash red tape fast. But with past bugs and no official sign-off, should we be worried or impressed?
🤔 Should AI be used to delete government rules? |

Allianz Life, a big U.S. insurance company, got hit by hackers. Most customers, employees, and partners got their info stolen.
🚨 Breaking News:
Hackers broke into a third-party CRM system and stole personal info from over a million Allianz Life users.
⚡Wire Simplified
The breach happened on July 16 through social engineering tricks (think: fake calls and sweet talk).
Data from customers, financial pros, and employees was stolen.
Allianz Life has 1.4 million customers and informed the FBI.
No ransom request or hacker group has claimed it yet.
Other insurers like Aflac were hit too. Google blames the “Scattered Spider” hacker group.
✔️Straight to the Point
Another big data breach. Allianz joins a growing list of companies outsmarted by social engineering. Cybersecurity is looking way too soft.

The hardest part of entrepreneurship:
Resting feels illegal.

Any pre-seed or seed investor that turns down the chance to meet a founder cos they don’t like “the space” they are in; doesn’t get this business.
Markets change, products change, people remain.
At this stage, the only thing that matters is people. 100%.
