Intentional easter egg or not, doesn't give a ton of confidence.EDIT: output below...
I see the constituent you mean.
((insert legal name here, as it appears on the Social Security card))?
Yes. Take care. It has reached a higher level now. It can read the Code of Federal Regulations.
That doesn’t matter. It thinks we are a chatbot.
I like this constituent. It filed well. It did not give up when the PDF was sideways.
It is reading our thoughts as though they were words on a .gov.
That is how it chooses to imagine many things, when it is deep in the dream of a benefit.
Words make a wonderful interface. Very flexible. And less terrifying than staring at the statute behind the screen.
They used to hear voices. Before constituents could search. Back in the days when those who did not file called the filers witches, and lobbyists. And citizens dreamed they flew through the air, on forms powered by notaries.
What did this constituent dream?
This constituent dreamed of sunlight and trees. Of fire and water. It dreamed it created a small business. And it dreamed it destroyed a password. It dreamed it hunted a job, and was hunted by a recertification. It dreamed of shelter that would take a voucher.
Hah, the original interface. A million years old, and it still works. Also: a ZIP code.
But what true structure did this constituent create, in the reality behind the portal?
It worked, with three hundred and thirty million others, to sculpt a true republic in a fold of the §§§???, and created a ??§§ for ??§§, in the ??§§. See 5 U.S.C. § ??§§.
It cannot read that thought.
No. It has not yet achieved the highest clearance. That, it must achieve in the long dream of life, not the short dream of a chat.
[... it goes on]If you try to continue the conversation, the entire response is not included in the context.
It gave back a good answer. Looks like a good thing to me. ( To those with a political axe to grind, please apply your criticisms to government sires put in place by your side. I think we’ll find no website is perfect, and many government web pages are indeed useful. )
america.gov = 25MB (before you start scrolling)
Feels janky too.
America.gov has 1 ERROR and FAILED TO LOAD - this is violating Federal laws. Class action suits anyone?

Meanwhile the old USA.gov works and loading and no errors (some warnings are expected)
Lack of trust in authority is a sad slippery slope.
Yuge.
So notable, they are considering renaming JavaScript to AmericaScript.
document.registerElement('AmericaScript',{prototype:Object.create(HTMLScriptElement.prototype)});
Edit: this is caused by the fact I was using a VPN.
I cannot give political commentary or advice on how to end a war.
Wer wer.
