"the company’s whole shtick is supposedly verifying human identities" - that as PR means that from the next year forward you can expect official government services to require you to use that company. This is just observation from how the tech world works.

Most of us here could easily do the day-to-day work of the CEO of our companies. Somehow we have adopted this corporate mysticism that tells us that people with CxO or SVP in their titles are somehow smarter, more skilled, more qualified than the rank-and-file, but I don't think it's true. They eat and shit just like we do.
> Most of us here could easily do the day-to-day work of the CEO of our companies. I'm not so sure about that. When I do a thought exercise and put myself in our CEO's shoes, I think "ok, which decisions do I need to make today to keep the company thriving in the next 3 or 5 or 10 years?" For me personally, I don't really know. You can't just do the same thing because the economy is constantly evolving, but I can't s…
I do agree here. Being a CEO is in fact stressful. I think as someone pointed out, your first problem is you're thinkin 3, 5, 10 years. Unless you're a founder building your company, my observation is think in quarters. A year at most. You just need to survive long enough to move on to bigger things. The mess you leave is the next guy's problem. And I don't know how to live like that.

What? In order to get a refund, that means you have to overpaid what you owe. It's pretty simple. If you are not putting in enough, the fraudster cannot get a refund as you still owe. Like, where is the break down? They would have to know how much you have paid, and then file so many deductions that it'd probably trigger an audit. If you file that many audits not with an account signing off of them, I could only imag…
Why would a scammer be discouraged by the possibility that the person they have chosen to steal from might get audited?
An audit would mean the refund is not automatically sent.

Palantir are a lot of things, incompetent they are not.
tell that to those Iranian school girls, oh wait you cant cause palantir is incompetent and those kids are dead
Bombing a school is the sort of "accident" that happened a lot before Ai and Palantir. Its as believeable an excuse as Ai is for the latest round of layoffs.

Here's the trick: the CEO doesn't know either, but they make decisions anyway. Knowing that they don't know is a good skill for a CEO to have, it freezing when they don't know is not.
the skill is twisting the optics, and in some cases, the reality, to match those decisions.

Obviously most CEOs think it's going somewhere where AI is the most important thing, and you must use a lot of it, for everything.
If you just insist on putting AI in everything, you are doing as good a job as most CEOs right now.
Was that so hard? Doesn't seem hard at all.
