In this episode of Small Business Big AI, we take a deep dive into Washington’s ambitious new initiative—the Department of Government Efficiency, also known as DOGE—and unpack what it means for small business owners. From potential deregulation to AI-powered government reforms, these big changes come with even bigger questions. Join host Kim and returning guest Hal as they explore how these policy shifts could impact your business. Will fewer regulations open doors for growth, or could essential services be at risk? What role does AI play in streamlining government, and are there hidden downsides to watch for? We tackle these questions and more, equipping you with the knowledge to navigate this evolving landscape.
