Months? I don't k ow how to code, and even I know that's impossible.

they will make chatGPT do it and then not verify.

Vibe Coding. I can't see a way for this to go wrong...

Nope. it won't go wrong. Do you know how I know? Because the faultless, ever-wonderful DOGE team is on it. They have never gone wrong. Ever.

oh, what about the 150 year old social security people? that simply never happened

Needless to say, /s

I know how to code, how to manage programs, how to architect huge safety-critical systems, and quite a few other things, and I know that you are right. I'd give it 5 to 7 years if it were adequately resourced, there was political commitment, and the stakeholders could be made to agree a set of requirements, then not change them unless there's a really convincing reason (conflicts with other requirements, impossible to implement, breaks everything, etc).

And the validation and verification of such a system could itself take a year or more, if it's well-planned and correctly executed.
