Did Palantir pay for this puff piece? No mention of false positives or how it adds everyone to virtual lineups? “Surveillance state” is put in scare quotes as if it's not literally what is being described.

- trhway 2y agoI don't think it is only Palantir who is beneficiary of this PR. If the deep state is going to be severely raided, voluntarily retired, etc. somebody has to pickup the slack, and the front row at the inauguration is ready with a technology based, i.e. efficient at least in some [DOGE]dimensions, solution as combined together they know everything about everybody.

- janice1999 2y agoUS based surveillance ("AI") companies started to get their teeth into the UK, e.g. into the NHS, under the previous Tory government, especially when Sunak was PM. Given the current PM's promises on going all in on AI and deregulation, I don't see the situation in the UK being much better than the US to be honest.
