It's vague on purpose. Their target demographic is CIOs and CTOs at large corporations and bureaucrats in governments. That language actually makes sense to them.
- gameswithgo 6y ago>That language actually makes sense to them. Maybe they think it does, but it can't actually.
- seedless-sensat 6y agoIt is reasonable to think a CIO may have some concrete data sources in mind that they want to integrate and build business intelligence on top of. The language is abstract since Palantir develops bespoke applications.
- Mobius01 6y agoBut it does. You see, these high level executives often have a goal in mind, but the best way to go about it is with this sort of ambiguity because it gives them room to inflate the expectations and plausible deniability when it goes wrong. If you look at the PowerPoint therapy know as consultant-driven product development, you will see the same language. Vague, ambiguous when documented.
