Doku über Alex Karp bzw. Palantir: Sehr ansprechend, entlarvend, weil man sich meist des Kommentars enthält. Bei Karp fiel mir bes. sein pseudo-philosophischer Anspruch auf: Er spricht über Bourdieu, Hegel, suggeriert, auf du und du mit den "großen" Denkern zu sein. Produziert aber nur Worthülsen, Inhaltsleere, dazu Anekdoten u. täuscht eine intellektuelle Aura vor, die lächerlich wirkt. Die treffende Frage eines ehem. Mitarbeiters: Wovon redet er?

yahoo news | Palantir CEO Says Only the Neurodivergent Will Survive the AI Takeover

Neurodiverse individuals—people whose brains work differently due to conditions such as autism, ADHD, or dyslexia—are often labeled “other” and face systemic hurdles in education and employment. In recent months, Palantir’s CEO Alex Karp has repeatedly invoked neurodivergence in public talks, most notably on the Technology Business Programming Network, where he warned that artificial intelligence will dramatically shrink the job market and suggested there are only two paths to a future: having vocational training or being neurodivergent. Karp’s own experience with dyslexia fuels his passion, but his framing implies that neurodivergent people possess a unique, perhaps superior, advantage in the coming AI‑driven economy.

Karp’s rhetoric aligns with a broader, problematic trend among some tech luminaries who tout neurodiversity as a shortcut to genius. Elon Musk has credited autism for his successes, while Peter Thiel describes Asperger’s as a “plus for innovation.” By portraying a lack of empathy as a rational edge, these leaders reinforce harmful stereotypes and edge toward what could be called neurodivergent supremacy—an insinuation that neurodiverse individuals are inherently more valuable or capable than neurotypical peers. This narrative risks deepening discrimination, as it suggests that only those who fit a narrow, glorified definition of neurodivergence will thrive.

While Karp’s company has recently launched a “Neurodivergent Fellowship” and he publicly champions the idea that neurodivergent people will shape America’s future, the tone of his comments raises concerns. It is one thing to acknowledge the challenges dyslexia posed him; it is another to use personal experience to claim a privileged status in a future reshaped by AI. As these high‑profile tech figures continue to frame neurodiversity as a competitive advantage, it is essential to monitor the discourse and ensure that advocacy for inclusion does not devolve into elitist rhetoric that marginalizes the very community it claims to support.

Als hätte „Minority Report“ in deutschen Amtsstuben das Denken ersetzt. Der Dokumentarfilm von Klaus Stern stellt den Menschen vor, der diese Vision verkauft – und mit ihr eine technoide Version der Totalüberwachung salonfähig macht. Dass der Film dabei selbst ein Teil dieser Normalisierung wird, ist die bittere Pointe. Er zeigt, was er nicht kritisiert. Das ist sein größtes Problem. (ARD, Wh.)
