The project plan involves practical and technological approach to the transformation of public administration. The participants, many of them Silicon Valley executivesthey will be seconded to federal agencies, where they will apply their skills in specific areas. In addition, the group aims to use tools, such as artificial intelligence (AI), to find inefficiencies and propose strategic cuts..
However, the initiative faces challenges. experts alert to achieve an economy of US$ 2 trillion (R$ 12.09 trillion) may be unviable if popular programs are not affected. Despite this, Musk and Ramaswamy believe that deregulation and innovative technological solutions can bring significant results no need for unpopular cuts.
Secrecy and Ambition: How DOGE Wants to Revolutionize US Government
According to the The New York Times, the structure of DOGE is still poorly defined and shrouded in secrecy. The people involved say so Preventing leaks is a priority.

Musk suggested the project could save “at least US$2 trillion (R$12.09 trillion)” in a federal budget of US$6.75 trillion (R$40.83 trillion). However, analysts claim that this goal it would be unworkable without cuts to popular programslike the Medicare and Social Securitythan trump promised to keep.
Musk and Ramaswamy have adjusted their vision of success for the project. Ramaswamy highlighted, in a recent post on social media, that DOGE’s main goal is to promote deregulation. He believes that reduce regulations it can stimulate the economy and generate growth. For him, “the success of DOGE it is not only measured by deficit reduction“.
