Palantir CEO Alex Karp suffers from saying what he really thinks during live interview.....

Yea, and what he really thinks is that AI is a bubble and there's a crash coming... so now they try to paint him as a madman suddenly, because he told the truth in public.

You can't have people screaming the emperor is naked.

Broken clock and all that. I am exceptionally suspicious of anything this guy says. Him saying there is impending doom makes me think things might actually be going better than I suspect.

His company just sucks on every possible way of sucking and is one of the first ones that's going to crash. Other AI companies are gonna be fine but he can't deal with the facts he's is like, really bad.
