We cover the recent NVIDIA x Palantir partnership wherein NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang stated that NVIDIA would “accelerate everything that Palantir” does. In this video, we mostly define WTF Palantir is, but also expand on other topics of AI facial recognition technology, so-called “pre-crime” arrests facilitated by other technologies and agencies, and how NVIDIA feels like it’s becoming, effectively, a defense contractor. Instead of ‘normal’ weapons, though, NVIDIA is selling AI technology to be turned into weapons.
They are still selling to you. 5090s “oh, they are back to MSRP again, buy buy buy!”, consoles that use them like the Nintendo Switch 2, etc. They are still selling to consumer markets, they just don’t want to sell to the markets that call them out on the monopolistic bullshit.
Now you have another reason not to buy NVIDIA: with the US being the corrupt hellhole that is now turning into an authoritarian regime and with them being willing to work with Palantir, it’s only a matter of time between the NVIDIA App software they force you to install becomes a surveillance tool. Because your private data is also much more profitable to them than you are, and they will get no legal backlash they won’t just inevitably be able to dismiss with just a slap on the hand.
