Elon Musk, speaking at the World Governments Summit in United Arab Emirates — Dubai, called for the United States to 'delete entire agencies' from its federal government as part of a push under Donald Trump to cut spending and restructure priorities. In his role leading the Department of Government Efficiency, Musk advocated for a shift away from bureaucracy and a more isolationist foreign policy, questioning the effectiveness of entities like the United States — United States Agency for International Development and the National Endowment for Democracy. He also discussed the Trump administration's focus on eliminating diversity, equity, and inclusion work, linking it controversially to AI. Additionally, Musk provided updates on Block, Inc.'s AI chatbot, Grok 3, criticized OpenAI's management, and announced plans for a 'United Arab Emirates — Dubai Loop' project with The Boring Company.
