Palantirs vd kallar AI-branschen för ”marxistisk” | NTD NYHETER

And after its record-breaking quarter, Palantir's CEO is warning against sharing data with AI labs. He says the current industry is Marxist. NDD's David Lam reports on that. Palantir's CEO calling the AI industry Marxist in a letter to shareholders recently. The CEO, Alex Karp, who studied philosophy, writing the letter after a favorable quarter for his software company. Engineering professor Ahmed Benafa of San Jose State University breaks it down for us. He's worried about the AI companies owning the data that the businesses are uploading, also the workflow that they upload there. Karp writes, there are Marxist overtones and undertones to our business. Others, including many of those building large language models, intend, knowingly or otherwise, to capture the means of production of their purported partners. He used a strong language. I'll give it to you. I mean, Karl Marx, nobody want to live under that kind of a mindset or that way of life. But this is to bring attention. And he's been famous for using these metaphors for a long time. So this has grabbed the attention of everybody. What do you mean by that? And people start thinking about it. And then they found that there's actually a warning for them not to rely on just one AI company. Make sure that you have freedom to move around. The software company reported nearly two billion dollars in revenue for its second quarter, almost double from last year's. The CEO also says he believes organizations will avoid fully giving info to AI models. Unprotected interaction with frontier models. This is very dangerous. You were warned about this in high school and now you're learning about it in your enterprise. So he's warning the businesses about that. The few AI companies over time with the data that they are providing now, they're going to come in control of your data, your workflow, your intuition, your IP intellectual property. That is warning is not for us as public. It's for the business. Though Karp says that organizations are awakening to the risks of handing over data to AI models, Palantir says it will not answer into a quote parasitic relationship with its partners.
