The Pentagon failed 8 audits in a row.  They literally can't explain where billions of dollars went. There's also this: An award to OpenAI, brings the Chief Digital & AI Officer’s investment in cutting-edge commercial “frontier AI” to a total of $800 million. $800 million for chatbots that hallucinate.

Our Godlike masters of the universe, glorious Elon and honorable Bezos, request another tax break.  It's fine, we can borrow another $10 trillion. The plebs can pick up the tab someday. 😈 /s/

Well you can’t expect the people with all the money to pick up the tab. They would have to buy less personal jets or something.

That's all political theater. They're attempting to create a narrative about "undeserving minorities taking advantage of the system, that's why you have to pay taxes."  Some people did take advantage and were prosecuted by the state. The Trump gang found out about it, blew it out of proportion, lied and exaggerated etc.   They're whole political movement runs and rage and fear. They have to distract their supporters from the fact that the super rich have caused the country to go $40 trillion in debt to pay for reckless tax breaks.

I'm going to take a number of liberties here in the name of simplistic explanation... Modern AIs are, at their core, word/concept-association engines. They operate by first associating words and concepts together, and assigning those associations scores based on the number of times they appear in the training data. Then they refer to those association scores to retrieve closest-matches when asked by a user. All of the other pieces of modern AI are built on combination and repetition runs of the association engine. (As an example, the user asks for only extremely high value scores because they want the AI to spit out a "factual" answer that is as close to identical to the training data as possible, or the user does *not* want the highest scoring associations because they want the AI to return a "creative" answer). The AI program, by design, cannot tell the difference between fact and fiction, only that certain associations have higher or lower scores - so when you ask it a question and it has association scores it thinks you want and that answer that is factually wrong, it will simply choose the wrong answer. Worse, if it runs the engine over and over and over before giving you the result (and one of the associations was not factual) it can **build** on its flaw with each run with the end result being completely incorrect. We call this an "hallucination" because like in humans, hallucinations are based on real sensory input, but are completely fictitious. In computer science there is a concept that completely describes AI's biggest flaw: GIGO. Garbage in, garbage out. If your input data is flawed, output data will be equally flawed (or worse!) no matter how many times you run the query. Again, a very, very 30,000 ft view explanation - but hopefully helpful.

You ever see a stick out of the corner of your eye and jump because you thought it was a snake? but on closer examination - just a dang stick. The mechanism is kinda similar. You have a machine designed to make inferences - sometimes they're wrong.  Systems like chat bots often include that last message in the present message's context - that causes a feedback loop of doubling down on the wrong shit.  There are techniques for mitigating the and better models hallucinate less anyway

This is absolutely not true, and also not why they failed the audit, but this myth will never, ever die. The audit isn't just about money, but also inventory, and has both strict conditions(including an assigned budget) and a time limit. The short answer is that the military can absolutely explain where it's money went, and where its inventory is, but congress has a bunch of dumb rules in place that prevent success so it fails because of technicalities every time. The details of why are boring, and complicated, and generally come down to not enough of the right people being assigned by congress(The military isn't allowed to spend extra money on this). Also, because of how it is set up, a single failure, ANYWHERE, no matter how small, causes the entire audit to be counted as a failure. Which is why we keep getting headlines of "US MILITARY FAILS AUDIT!"
2
Some_Conference2091 Apr 4, 2026 +11
I stand by what I said, and I think your simping for the DoD. The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) has received a "disclaimer of opinion" on each full annual audit it has undergone since 2018 — eight in total — which means the condition of the agency's accounting is so poor that it is _impossible to comprehensively assess the agency's financial records._ Auditors consider both a disclaimer of opinion and an adverse opinion to be a "failed" audit. However, auditors sometimes consider a "disclaimer of opinion" to be more severe than an "adverse opinion" because a "disclaimer" often means records are so badly managed that auditors _can't tell if fraud or mismanagement occurred._ Audits also have found major oversights at the Department of Defense. A 2023 audit, for example, found that the agency accidentally overvalued the military equipment it sent to Ukraine by $6.2 billion. The Government Accountability Office has placed the Department of Defense's financial management on its "high risk" list for __fraud and mismanagement__ since 1995.  Partial audits from 1990 to 2017 also are available; while the DOD has conducted at least partial audits since 1990, the Pentagon __did not comply with federal law__  from 1990 to 2018. In fiscal year 2024, which ran from Oct. 1, 2023 to Sept. 30, 2024, the Pentagon's stand-alone entities could not comprehensively account for at least 44% of their total assets, or resources owned and controlled by the Defense Department, and at least 68% of their budgetary resources, the money allocated by Congress for the agency's use. As of a November 2024 report from nonpartisan Congressional staff, the DOD has $4.1 trillion in assets and $4.3 trillion in liabilities, or debt owed to other entities.  This summary of concerns shows that this institution cannot keep track of its assets.  Meaning cash and equipment. These are big numbers we're talking about.  It's not an old Humvee that went missing, or we forgot about these A-10s.  The Department of Defense's financial management is at "high risk" for __fraud and mismanagement__ since at least 1995.

TerraceState Apr 4, 2026 +3
A lot of this is either opinion from specific groups, or dangerously misleading, or just weasel words. "Sometimes consider... Often means..." That line about 44% of assets belonging to a standalone group is talking about something like 30 billion dollars of material. At least according to what I was able to find, because I couldn't find an exact match for your percentage. The total value of the entire militaries "misplaced assets" is a vanishingly small percentage of their entire stock. Those lines about not complying with federal law is dangerously ambiguous. Failing an audit is "not complying with federal law."
3
Some_Conference2091 Apr 5, 2026 +5
😂 _dangerously ambiguous_  okay? They didn't comply with auditing laws, which started in 1990. It took almost 30 years to start complying with federal auditing laws.  Is that less dangerously ambiguous for you? There's nothing wrong with expecting accountability from our most expensive government service. Since it is the most expensive it makes sense that it accounts for a lot of the governments waste, fraud, and abuse. you're such a silly little boy

If you are relying on a simple google search, then you clearly haven't delved deeply enough into the issue. Several branches and sections of the military have absolutely passed, and you can even look up 28 specific failures in the last audit, if you want.

cali2wa Apr 4, 2026 +7
No you’re right, I didn’t witness the inefficiencies first hand while I was in 😂 The issues are systemic. I have no doubt that some sectors are able to pass. Unfortunately, the audit isn’t for only some sectors. Are you arguing that they should pass the audit even if some sectors fail?

James, 51, pleaded guilty on Wednesday to conspiracy to commit wire fraud, bribery and conspiracy to rig bids for the US Pacific air forces based in Hawaii. In a plea agreement, James admitted conspiring with multiple competitors to rig bids for IT contracts with the US defense department Incoming Trump pardon?

Part of the plea is that this guy can be called to testify agist them… I am waiting to watch the rest of them goto jail.

People complain about the wrong things when it comes to the budget. For Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and the Military there absolutely needs to be more oversight and people who know what they’re doing figuring out where all this wasted money is going. DOGE wasn’t a bad idea in theory. The problem is it was run by morons cashing down political items that are 0.0001% of the budget instead of actually dealing with the real problem.

Herkfixer Apr 5, 2026 +4
The minute they fired all the Inspectors General (the guys who's job actually is investigating fraud, waste and abuse) and hired high school students it was obvious they weren't actually looking for fraud, waste and abuse. It was purely for the optics. End a bunch of liberal programs so that when liberals complained they could point and say "See, they disagree with ending these programs because they *want* fraud, waste and abuse."

This is done in the housing market, insurance and with automobiles everyday and no one is being arrested. It’s being done with your electricity bills right now, as utilities intentionally inflate projects to capitalize them to make the consumer pay for them through rate increases. This is just capitalism. Maybe it’s because they don’t give themselves stupid nicknames.

Some basic advice that should be common sense. If you ever decide to commit financial fraud or commit any other crime. Do not nickname yourself " Al Capone ".  This guy was a idiot. The only way giving himself that nickname would be smart is if he was trying to play a really crazy defense.  If he tried to say someone else was setting him up and he wouldn't  call himself a mobster on record. Someone else most have faked it. But no he was just a idiot that found a way to grab some cash because people thought no one would be dumb enough to do it.

He'll be pardoned soon I'm certain. This administration loves the greedy fraudsters.

Well the Pentagon has failed all its last eight audits with possibly 2-3 trillion dollars missing every year. What an incompetent joke.

Absolutely ill. That’s like 400+ years of experience cut because it disagreed with Hegseth.

He’s a fraudster so will probably get a Trump pardon. If he still has some money to “donate”
