So, Big Brother has made it clear that forfeiting your personal privacy is better than losing… even just some AI race?
Palantir CEO Says a Surveillance State Is Preferable to China Winning the AI Race
He also had strong opinions about people’s “god-given” rights to eat a hotdog and flirt with someone who isn’t their spouse.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp
Palantir CEO Alex Karp talks so much that youâd think that he just likes the sound of his own voiceâthough you wonder if he actually hears what heâs saying.
The subject of the recently published Michael Steinberger book âThe Philosopher in the Valleyâ popped onto The Axios Show this week to talk about all kinds of things, in part because it seems like the wheels in his brain turn faster than his mouth can get the words out. But itâs some of his clearly prepared and repeated lines that are the most eye-roll-inducing.
For instance, when asked by Axiosâs Mike Allen, âWhat the hell is Palantir?â Karp answered, âWe are growing the GDP of the US. We are the part of the GDP⌠of the AI economy where things are useful.â Okay! That is the description of a company, for sure.
Karpâs been hammering the GDP thing lately, considering he brought it up during his appearance on CNBCâs âSquawk Boxâ earlier this week. There, in a bit of a rambling response to Michael Burryâs decision to short Palantir, Karp suggested that investors should just get on board with his company because âMost of the GDP growth in this country is because of AI.â Heâs not wrong, but he also seems to view that as a good thingâthat AI is inevitable and essential and everyone should just get on board, rather than there being any chance weâre currently in the middle of a speculative gold rush that is artificially inflating economic growth metrics and will inevitably bottom out.
Itâs hard not to read Karpâs view of his own company as essentialâto the government, to the world, to pretty much everyoneâwhich has become something of a theme from AI company executives as of late. And thereâs no denying heâs a very dedicated hype man for his company. On CNBC, he called it âone of the greatest businesses in the world,â and said itâs âdoing a noble task.â On Axios, he chose a slightly different dialect to express that, calling Palantir âthe most baller, interesting company on the planet,â with a âballer productâ and âballer culture.â

At his core, he seems to feel that Palantir not only can be key to maintaining American exceptionalism, but that it has to be. In his letter to investors after the companyâs third-quarter earnings were released, he evoked poet William Butler Yeatsâ famous poem âThe Second Coming,â in which he wrote, âThings fall apart; the center cannot hold.â Karpâs riff on the poem was this: âToday, America is the center, and it must hold.â He went on to argue, âIt is and was a mistake to casually proclaim the equality of all cultures and cultural values.â As a reminder, this is supposed to be the head of a software company and not a nationalistic political leader.
To that end, when Karp was asked by Allen to âgo darkâ and talk about what could go wrong with AI, he didnât really get to the downside. âIt could go wrong in lots of ways, but again, there I would say we need to absorb a lot of risk there because itâs either going to go right and wrong for us or itâs going to go right and wrong for China.â
Asked again, more specifically this time, how AI could impact people, he just canât get there. âNo decision is without risk. And the risk we have to absorb here is going long on this because weâre not doing this in a vacuum. We are going to be the dominant player, or China is going to be the dominant player, and there will just be very different rules depending on who wins,â he said. âSo when people are worried about surveillance, of course, there are huge dangers there, but you know, you will have far fewer rights if Americaâs not in the lead.â
Basically, we might completely destroy our economy, our culture, our sense of privacy and individuality, our sense of pride in contributing to our communitiesâbut weâll be damned if we let anyone else do it to us.
As a side note, Karp seems to think most peopleâs concern with surveillance is that they are going to get caught cheating for some reason. For instance, when giving an example of what he thinks is a valid skeptical question to ask about what Palantir is doing, he said, âIs this product being used to take away my right to go have a hot dog with a coworker Iâm flirting with while being married? Which, honestly, I think is the god-given right of people in this country.â He later brings this up again, saying that most surveillance technology isnât determining, âAm I shagging too many people on the side and lying to my partner?â Your guess is as good as any as to what thatâs all about.

Anyway, when Karp does finally get to the idea of existential risk brought about by the proliferation of AI, he says the primary risk is âsocial instability.â Pressed into describing what forms that might take, Karp describes âPretty crazy populist movements that obviously make no sense, like the government is going to run grocery stores.â
So there are your two paths. You can choose the one where AI is integrated into every part of your life, get forced into increasingly narrow pathways for your education and work, and accept an all-seeing surveillance state as a trade-off for âsafetyâ from an unseen enemy. Or you can have your local government address affordability problems by opening grocery stores in food deserts and selling goods at wholesale prices. Tough call, but itâs clear what side Karp has picked. It happens to be the one he profits from. Go figure.

Carice van Houten Full-Frontal Nude Scenes From âThe Passion Fruitâ

You may recognize Carice as the fire witch Melisandre from HBOâs âGame of Thrones,â as her pencil-eraser nipples made her a household name in the mid-2010s.
However, in what was perhaps the greatest plot hole in the series, Carice never once flashed her tulip twat on the show like she does in this film, leaving viewers frustrated while they wonder if her labia are as undersized as her areola. But alas, âThe Passion Fruitâ delivers the forbidden fruit in full, revealing that the Red Priestessâs true altar is not in the Lord of Lightâs temple but rather between her thighs, glowing like the flames of Asshai.
