    The best way to make money is “disrupt” the tower and sell the duct tape to hold it together. Wild how that always means make the lives of everyone else worse and act like it would have happened anyways.

    Anyways let’s look at those quotes!

    Palantir CEO Alex Karp thinks his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men.

    “This technology disrupts humanities-trained—largely Democratic—voters, and makes their economic power less. And increases the economic power of vocationally trained, working-class, often male, working-class voters,” Karp said in a CNBC interview Thursday. “And so these disruptions are gonna disrupt every aspect of our society. And to make this work, we have to come to an agreement of what it is we’re going to do with the technology; how are we gonna explain to people who are likely gonna have less good, and less interesting jobs.”

    “These technologies are dangerous societally,” Karp continued. “The only justification you could possibly have would be that if we don’t do it, our adversaries will do it. And we will be subject to their rule of law.… Why is it that we’re absorbing the risk of disrupting the very fabric of our society, including the most powerful parts of our society, if it’s not because it’s about maintaining our ability to be American in the near term and long term?”

    Oh no.

      Holy hell, man. The only missing elements were him calling women “female” and making awkward videos saying, “Don’t do ______ like this; do it like this!” before explaining how women care about the ______ being done their way so much, its the reason all his incel viewers are cherry-boys.

      What a horrible human.
