Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency is poised to roll out special software to speed up sweeping federal layoffs, as the billionaire prepares to step back from the agency.
The software, known as AutoRIF, is an updated version of a decades-old Pentagon program – though it has been used very little in recent years. The name AutoRIF comes from "Reduction in Force," a term used to describe mass layoffs, according to the U.S. Office Of Personnel Management.
