The only situation in which 2A will stop mattering is if the government decides it is willing to level American cities to achieve its future goals. You cannot kick down doors with AI. You cannot infiltrate meetings with AI (well, at least not if the meeting holders have good opsec). AI is great if you want to identify targets, but it does not move the needle very much on an occupation. If you want to preserve the are…

There haven't been may israeli lives lost besides those in october 7th. The blood used to pay has only been Palestine.

Palantir employees probably know how easy it would be to correlate any post they make to their real identity.

Also that they are unlikely to get a fair shake unless they say what folks here want to hear.

Not really. Drones give you pretty good tracking/murdering capability. I suspect ground based systems either similar characteristics will be deployed soon.

"Palantir's AI" is Anthropic Claude.

Depends on specific cases, I have on good authority of how in few "bleeding edge" ones they essentially repacked/wrapped YOLOv3. Purpose was specifically tracking in adversarial conditions (smoke, including smokescreen, obstacles, etc)

I think Meta employees don’t protest either for the genocides its platforms aided and supported or the other harms caused to kids in general. Maybe the pay is so good that one can convince oneself they’re on the good side. Maybe these companies attract a certain type of personality that doesn’t necessarily care much about others.

I skimmed through the article. I didn’t understand what role AI supposedly plays in this case for tracking aid deliveries. For tracking you need sensors and connectivity from the mode of delivery, location information, some analytics and databases. What does this AI do for tracking? I can understand a sales pitch that says AI decides where to provide aid, how much, when, etc. But tracking deliveries? It’s a head scratcher for me.

why draw the line on palantir? why not involve microsoft amd intel who provides their computers, or car manufacturers that provides their vehicles?

been seeing lots of these attacks on defense companies without providing a better alternative and a concrete plan they can execute
