No one in defense - not the Generals, not the defense companies, not the politicians - wants to go to war. No one wants to write a letter home to a parent telling them their son or daughter was lost in combat. There are plenty of times we've justified not engaging in combat, and…

We're excited to announce Patlytics’s $4.5M seed round led by Gradient Ventures, with participation from 8VC, Liquid2 Ventures, Tribe Capital, Vermilion Ventures, Gaingels, Alumni Ventures, Position Ventures and partners from premier law firms and Datadog President Amit Agarwal.
Pumped to support Paul Lee!
It is time to rename SBIR or it will forever remain a welfare program... or more cynically a way to keep small folks small and protect the bigs. The point of small business is to get BIG. There is no leverage without achieving scale. We are not trying to create lifestyle…

Future of AI and Defense: CNBC's full interview with Palantir CEO Alex Karp cnb.cx/4a946gB
"We don't play golf, we play software." Palantir CEO Alex Karp says that the company's product is what customers are lining up for versus their competitors trib.al/5TzdMR7
The @USArmy has awarded Palantir a prime agreement for the Prototype Maturation Phase of the Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN). As the Army’s first AI-defined vehicle, TITAN is a milestone capability for America’s warfighters. Learn more:…
Great to see lots of attention on the El Segundo defense hackathon. We @8vc were proud to help organize. Defense wasn’t as cool when we started PLTR 21 years ago. Amazing to see young builders excited about the USA and defense tech, and what they can build in a weekend! 🇺🇸

We're honored to support such exceptional teams as @PalantirTech, @anduriltech, @epirus, @Saronic, @ChaosDefense - and look forward to partnering with the growing cohort of bold, ambitious leaders innovating in defense tech.
In a new essay for @TIME, #Palantir CEO Alex Karp and Nicholas Zamiska offer a critique of our culture’s diminished capacity for authentic discourse and belief — in our most storied institutions and Silicon Valley. Read more: time.com/6692111/silico…
Make the bold choice: do what's harder that confronts the dysfunction, not what's safe and easy that tolerates brokenness!! It's better to be "controversial" while standing up for what's right than to be liked but ineffectual. Our society needs to get back to teaching courage.
We generated $608 million in revenue in Q4 2023, representing an increase of 9% over the previous quarter. We conducted fewer than 100 commercial pilots in 2022. Since introducing AIP, we’ve already conducted 500+ bootcamps on top of the 130+ pilots we undertook in our…
Excited to present my latest Q4 2023 - State of Venture Update & 2024 Outlook: "80% Growth is the New 200%". In this update, I explore the dynamic shifts in AI, inflation outlook, changes in the Venture Capital market, and BioTech as we enter 2024. alexkolicich.com/p/q4-2023-stat…
$PLTR CEO Alex Karp at ADIPEC: "Silicon Valley has hated us because they were like well why are you attracting and retaining the best talent for something unimportant like saving the world when you can do consumer internet and make the world worse and we all get rich"
We at Palantir have been committed to defending the principles that make democratic rule possible since our founding two decades ago. Our software embodies our values and commitments. These include high performance, efficiency, transparency, fairness, and a rejection of narrow…

It’s difficult to describe how insane a 25% tax on unrealized capital gains is. Not a one-time 25% hit. It’s compounding, annually taking 25% of every dollar of potential increase before it can grow. Not an exaggeration to say it could single-handedly crush the economy.
