New York City hospitals drop Palantir as controversial AI firm expands in UK

It seems like letting a company like Palantir anywhere near private medical data is a pretty bad idea. I am happy NYC is doing this.

Why are so many entities dealing with Palantir? They are a poison pill for customers.

"controversial" Everyone knows what's going on, but also everyone is too afraid to stand up for some reason.

NYC schools just passed some AI guidelines as well. No training on student PII data, no final grades, etc. Unfortunately that's a pinprick for the behemoth.

Their main product is just consulting and PowerBI but for government. So much hysteria online!

J.D. Vance and Peter Thiel's Palantir is reportedly getting the software contract for control of Golden Dome, an orbital weapon system built by Elon Musk. A weapon system capable of targeting any person on Earth controlled by a mass surveillance company. Wonderful.

Palantir is an AI firm now? Thought it was a data collection/spyware firm.

when private company is deeply embedded in public health systems it is just dangerous

Palantir can install a data backdoor at anytime with their software. If you haven't noticed that businesses are openly violating data privacy you aren't paying attention. I don't have trust in our judicial system if Trump pardons criminals everyday.

Dear UK government, keep Palantir the hell away from my data.

Palantir is the most evil company nowadays.
