Palantir. Deep Research for 15 min. Rules: - NO AI - Handwritten Notes. Timer here. Then 1 minute presentation. There's a lot of memes about Palantir being evil, but nobody really says why. The co-founder Peter Thiel said that he quote no longer believes freedom and democracy are compatible. And the CEO Alex Carp has said that their product is quote used on occasion to kill people. And he also lobbies for the US to keep sending weapons to Israel. Speaking of Israel, Palantir's main customers as Palantir gives them software that includes AI powered drone and airstrike targeting that they literally call an AI powered kill chain. They also supply Ukraine with this AI killing software. Palantir also ran a secret program with the New Orleans police where they made a list of civilians who were likely to commit crime and LAPD used Palantir software to create a point system that ranked people based on how likely they are to commit crime, except it disproportionately targeted minorities. They've also been helping ICE for the last decade track down immigrants. They even made a case management system to create profiles for immigrants using private data from government databases, except it's not just illegal immigrants, it's US citizens too. And in January just this year, Palantir made another piece of software for ICE called ELITE. They used Medicaid data to track people down, except ICE illegally gave Palantir access to the Medicaid data of numerous patients. They literally use your private medical records to deport people.
