00:00The White House just launched a government chatbot and it quote
00:03Cannot in theory be hacked into
00:05Here's what's happening
00:06That was President Trump on Tuesday launching America.gov
00:10It's a federal chatbot, you ask a question
00:13and it answers from 29,000 federal websites with citations
00:17Its architect, U.S. Chief Design Officer Joe Jebbia, demoed it like this
00:21I just got married, how do I change my name?
00:23He says it pulls from multiple agencies and tells you what to do
00:26But right now it only answers questions
00:29Tasks like renewing a passport or enrolling in Medicare come in 2027
00:33In the demo of what's coming, you can do things like drop your marriage certificate in
00:37and it submits your name change for you so you can
00:39Enjoy the honeymoon
00:40Marco Rubio at the launch demo said
00:42This is really going to be a revolution in the way that government works for the average American
00:47Yahoo News reports this launch comes amid growing concerns about how chatbots store and share data
00:53The White House's response
00:54All this, by the way, is private by design
00:57Doesn't keep your personal information or your conversations
01:00Your personal information is not collected or stored
01:03And your conversation disappears when you leave
01:06And everything stays totally private
01:08There's no login for right now
01:10But the White House fact sheet says in the future
01:12You can sign in and complete transactions
01:14And Trump's executive order names login.gov
01:17As an authentication service linked with america.gov
01:20The AP and Newsweek say the site doesn't name which AI model it uses
01:24But Jebbia told CNBC it runs on Google's Gemini and SpaceX's Grok
01:28So would you be comfortable handing a government chatbot your paperwork?
