I suggest building a parallel justice system for Peter Thiel. It will be powered by guillotines.

Without reading the article, algorithms have been used in sentencing for some time, well over ten years, to detrimental effect.
At least with algorithms the calculation is transparent. AI is so much worse because it's a black box
AI is bullshit, not that different, it's the most hyped bullshit since idk. We are being played on this, amongst a great many other things.
Tech is a freedom ending thing don''t get me wrong, if we don't organize.
The state ceding the monopoly of violence to a surveillance corporation would be considered too on the face to be the plot of a cyberpunk dystopia and yet here we are living in the worlds dumbest dystopia.
So he read that Frank Herbert quote about "permitted other men with machines to enslave them" and thought it was a great idea
lol, he publicly identifies as a Sauron cosplayer
cf. $companyName
...but he's actually more like a sweaty Zorg, as a cartoon villain.
How is this not treason
Because it operates within the law? It's a binding arbitration company.
How is the current administration not treason. Answers your initial question, I think.
Does it really matter if checks and balances have been wiped out? Seems like just a label.
JD Vance is still riding his dick.
Because he's... Say it with me....
RICH AND WHITE!
Rather worryingly UK police forces are using Palantir to collect data on officers and civilian staff. I wonder how deep it goes.
I imagine he’s going to try and deploy this in that totally unregulated Freedom City that he and Trump are trying to launch on some federal property in CA.
Nah, he is going to deploy it as the de-facto arbitrator for private industry. You wave your write to sue virtually every time you sign a TOS. This will replace arbitration because that is already a parallel legal system exclusively for corporations.
It's only parallel for now.
Once we contract judges and the justice system to Palantir to avoid costly things like humans passing judgement, then think of the savings!
That or we get one of those Network State Praxis type things.
Oh wow, The Antichrist himself spinning up his own justice system. Sounds much fairer than a jury of your peers.
Throw water on it
The movie “Mercy” huh
Im hoping that: at least they're trying this stuff with software that is not actually AI, so they'll fail.
Id still take them seriously though. This guy and everyone around him is insane.
Might as well have Judgeman at this point.
Humans probably should drop talking and writing to survive at this point in history.
thiel talking about justice is ironic
Bad cabling, bad temp management, who clips cables onto an ancient stone wall, freestanding severs, some racks are connected in isolation.
This is a great alegory for how well it will perform.
