Adam and Tyrone take a close look at Alex Karp, the CEO of defense tech data analytics firm Palantir. He was interviewed recently by Bari Weiss and said a lot of very weird and interesting things that are worth examining. Enjoy! 00:00 — Intro. What's up with Palantir, anyway? Should this be a Conspiracy Corner episode (available to paid subscribers on Substack!)? 01:41 — Tyrone brings up the Haman Nature article (linked below) that inspired this episode, and the video interview mentioned within (also linked below). Why does Alex Karp say such creepy stuff? 03:21 — What is Palantir all about? Where did it come from and what does it do? 05:12 — Who is Bari Weiss? What his her history? What are her biases? Remember, the neocons came from the left. What do the left and right represent now? How has that changed over time? 19:58 — Back to Alex Karp and Palantir, what was the point of this interview with Bari Weiss? What is Alex Karp's thesis in his new book, The Technological Republic? 22:29 — We play a clip from the interview. Why does Karp think Silicon Valley lost its way? 25:37 — Adam tears apart what Karp says in that clip. Is Alex Karp an intellectual charlatan? 32:15 — Tyrone shows that one of Karp's favorite philosophers is connected to Hans-Hermann Hoppe and argumentation ethics. 36:42 — Back to Adam's attack on Karp's comments in the clip, including sophistry. 41:33 — What is Palantir? What do they make? What do they do? Should more resources be directed towards Palantir and what it does, or towards ends directed by free people in a free market? 47:04 — Outro.
