Employees of the General Services Administration, which manages government real estate and certain IT efforts, have been given a custom chatbot from Elon Musks DOGE to help automate tasks, according to a new report from Wired, with an internal memo telling workers it can be used to draft emails, create talking points, summarize text, write code. The chatbot, GSAi, gives users a choice of three models Claude Haiku 3.5 (the default), Claude Sonnet 3.5 v2 and Meta Llama 3.2 and is ultimately meant to be used to analyze contract and procurement data, Wired reports. The GSA is one of the many agencies that have been affected by the federal governments mass job cuts, and has so far let go upwards of 1,000 workers, sources told NPR in a report published this week. That includes roughly 90 people from its tech branch, according to Wired. In memos about the new chatbot seen by Wired, workers were told not to input federal nonpublic information, personally identifiable information or controlled unclassified information. It was reportedly tested among a smaller group last month before rolling out to the roughly 1,500 workers who now have access, with plans to expand down the line.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix has tapped Fast & Furious director Justin Lin to direct its upcoming movie adaptation of BRZRKR, the popular comic by Keanu Reeves and Matt Kindt about an immortal warrior. Netflix first announced plans to create both a live-action movie and an anime based on BRZRKR back in 2021, with Reeves starring in the former and returning to voice his character in the animated show. But, weve heard little about the projects since. In the meantime, Reeves and author China Miéville dove back into the BRZRKR lore with The Book of Elsewhere, which was released last year. There are still no details on when the Netflix adaptations will air, but we can safely expect both to bring violence and plenty of action. BRZRKR follows a half-mortal, half-god man known as B who has fought his way through 80,000 years of life. By the time he accepts a job killing for the US government, hes very much over his immortality and looking for a way out. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Terminator Zero showrunner Mattson Tomlin is writing the script for the movie and the anime.
