Ah, you thought I meant it like... oh no, my thought was more like, leave him without water, soon he'd be desperate enough to drink the olive oil, giving him worse shits, and when he couldn't take it any more the handgranade was his way out.
Why a handgranade and not a gun with a single bullet?
Because I don't want to litter weapons for anyone to get, I wanted something that would destroy itself when used.
He co-founded Palantir with Alex Karp (and others). This article is about Alex Karp, the CEO of Palantir. Peter Thiel is a chairman of Palantir's board, not CEO.
Elmo Musk became the world's biggest billionaire by scanning and lying about everything.
Others took note and took his example and just make random shit up, say shit that can't be verified or even if it can, doesn't matter. Just make fantastical fanatical unsubstantiated claims, and you will be rich too, bro!
We really need to figure out a way to prevent the worst people on the planet getting any kind of power. I'm so tired of hearing about these freaks and weirdos, they don't need yet another payout and even more power, they need therapy.
There's a lot of magical thinking about how AI will actually help the labor market, but it seems clear to me that the entire reason for the billions being pumped into AI is the potential to slash labor costs.
It's like they're building human wood chippers while telling us that all these human wood chippers will actually result in fewer people being fed into wood chippers.

These fradulent motherfuckers are so far up their own asses they can see daylight again.

Can he please go back to South Africa?

I'd be happy if he was put off on a deserted island with a bottle of olive oil and a handgranade.
ZDL@lazysoci.al · 8 pts · 196d
I'd prefer he die slowly and painfully. A bottle of oil and a spork.

But why give him an easy way out. Make him live through the whole experience until he dies painfully.
stoy@lemmy.zip · 5 pts · 196d
At this point I'd be happy if the ghouls ruining the world died in an intense euphoria, as long as they were gone.

Isn't Palantir Thiel's baby?

Ah. I can't keep up with their little title shenanigans. My bad.

Does it matter? He has tons of upvotes. This site is fucking braindead.

In this context, "AI" is just a codeword for "the fascist surveillance state that we are building."

Panopticonpaloza is the working title

"It'll also give you free blowjobs and make everything taste like cotton candy."
Valmond@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 196d
That'd help with the blowjobs I guess, or can you refuse in this new world order?
xxce2AAb@feddit.dk · 2 pts · 194d
Sorry, no. There will be only obedience and / or death.
And the lingering taste of cotton candy.

This is Thiel in a nutshell

Peter Thiel has always been a corrupted evil shitbag. But unlike Musk, he stayed in the shadows.

Yeah, folks who are facing mega droughts can drink AI tokens

It's a shame the US has so much else going on that we won't be able to easily see how hard it gets fucked by lack of immigration.

GreenKnight23@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 195d
he's right!
AI will be used as a way to keep people locked into their little cages to toil and work their whole lives away for the rich and powerful.
you'll never need to immigrate because you can never leave.
AI is fascism.

Good news, everyone!
The surveillance state is immigrating to you!

If AI is so great as they claim, why doesn't OpenAI just open source all their stuff? Why not just streamline this alleged revolution?

Great at catching immigrants.
