Palantir under fire for X 'manifesto' from co-founder Alex Karp
BBC News reports criticism of a 22-point X post by Palantir co-founder and chief executive Alex Karp, in which he called all-cultures-are-equal beliefs wrong, backed AI weapons and universal national service, and called Germany's post-war disarmament an "overcorrection". The article sets this against Palantir's UK government contracts, including a £330m NHS data platform deal that the British Medical Association and campaigners oppose, while Health Secretary Wes Streeting defended the technology though calling some of Palantir's people's remarks "abominable".
