Palantir CEO Alex Karp talks so much you’d think he just likes the sound of his voice — even though you wonder if you’re actually hearing what he’s saying.
The title of the recently published Michael Steinberger Book “Philosopher in the village” entered the axios show this week to discuss all kinds of things that turn faster than his mouth can get words out. But some of his well-prepared and repetitive lines are roll-roll-roll-exhos.
For example, when asked by Axios MIKE, “What the hell is Palantir?” Karp replied, “We are growing the GDP of the US. We are part of the GDP … of the AI economy where things are useful.” That’s right! That’s the definition of the company, for sure.
Karp put Helper the typ recently, thinking he brought it up during his appearance on CNBC’s “Square Box” earlier this week. There, in an offensive response to Michael Burry’s decision in Palantir’s brief, Karp suggested that investors should just get on board with his company because the country’s GDP growth is due to AI. ” He’s not right, but he also seems to see that as a good thing – that AI is inevitable and important and everyone has to come on board, rather than being at the highest level of the highest metric and going to come out below.
It is difficult not to learn to read Karp’s view of his company as the right one – in the government, in the world, in the world, to be the best thing in AI that the managers have been drinking. And there is no denying that he is a very dedicated person to hype his company. On CNBC, he called it “one of the greatest businesses in the world,” and said it was “doing a great job.” At axios, he chose different language to express that, calling palantir “the most baller, the most exciting company in the world,” with a baller product “and” a baller culture. “
In his opinion, he seems to think that Palantir is not only important to maintain the American distinction, but that -nana you are. In his letter to investors after the release of the third court, he evoked the poet William Butler Heats’ famous poem “fenced for the second time,” things stop. ” Karp’s riff on the poem is: “Today, America is an institution, and it must hold.” He continued to argue, “and it was also a mistake to declare the equality of all cultures and cultural values.” As a reminder, this should be the head of a software company and not a nationalist political leader.
To that end, when Karp was asked by Allen to “take a look” and talk about what went wrong with AI, he didn’t hit a hole. “It could go wrong in a lot of ways, but again, when I said we need to get more risk out there because it’s right for us or it might be wrong for China.”
He asked again, this time, how AI can affect people, he just can’t get there. “There is no decision without risk. And the risk that we have to find here goes a long way this time because we will not be the best player, and it will be the best player, and there will be a very different rule depending on who,” he said. “So when people are concerned about surveillance, of course, there are big risks there, but you know, you’re going to have very few rights if America isn’t leading.”
Basically, we can completely destroy our economy, our culture, our sense of privacy and humanity, our sense of pride in contributing to our communities – but we will be damned if we let someone else do it to us.
As a side note, Karp seems to think that people are more concerned about being caught cheating for some reason. For example, when he gives an example of what he thinks is a suitable question that you don’t know what you are doing, this product says to remove my rotten right with stubborn love. ” Later you bring this up again, saying that many observational technologies do not determine, “Am I cutting too many people on the side and lying to my partner?” Your guess is as good as any that is about everything.
However, when Karp finally comes to the concept of existential risks brought by the proliferation of AI, he means the risks that start with “social instability.” Pressed to explain what forms it could take, Karp describes “a big, exciting movement that is obviously absurd, as the government will use food stores.”
So there are two ways for you. You can choose one where AI is integrated into every part of your life, forced to be the narrow streets of your education and work, and accept the attitude of looking at everything you see as a trade from the enemy of “security. Or you can have your Local Government problems paid for by opening food shops in the food desert and selling goods at full prices. It’s a tough call, but it’s clear which side of KARP you have chosen. It happens to be a profit. Go Ficcebo.
