Palantir CEO criticizes AI labs for 'drugging' enterprises

Palantir CEO Alex Karp has intensified his criticism of frontier AI labs like OpenAI and Anthropic, accusing them of attempting to make enterprises dependent on their models while demanding control over intellectual property. Karp advocates for businesses to maintain control over their own data and models, suggesting Palantir's application layer as a solution. He argues that the current model of large AI labs offering services where customers own nothing is unsustainable and potentially detrimental to businesses and national security, drawing parallels to China's model development.
