Karp Carps at Critics

CNBC interviewed Palantir CEO Alex Karp after reports Trump II, the digital Caligula, wants a giant government database capable of tracking U.S. residents.  That notion has not been well received.

Karp did say AI is dangerous and that the U.S. must beat China in that arena.   Alex tried to tackle his critics with a bunch of ad hominems and patriotic nonsense.

His new partner is the CEO of Teletracking which uses technology on hospital patients.

The former hospital bracelet now looks something like a smartwatch.  Karp said Palantir will help Teletracking "make smart decisions" and "be more profitable."  He did not illuminate the danger hospital patients will face under Palantir/Teletracking AI.  

Jon Stewart highlighted Alex Karp's bizarre behavior in a Daily Show segment. It's well worth the watch.  The part involving Palantir begins at the 13:13 mark.

Thank heaven for the newsmedians...  They are a wonderful counterbalance to TechGod nonsense.
