⚡🇬🇷 NEW - Former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis says that the conflict in Gaza is being utilised as a laboratory for technology firms, such as Palantir, to train AI and data-gathering products. Beyond the political failure of the “pseudo-ceasefire”, Varoufakis says that global tech giants are exploiting the mass displacement and movement of Palestinians to refine their algorithms.
He detailed a conversation with a tech insider, formerly of Palantir, who reportedly described the “Gaza event” as “exciting” for the industry and how high-volume data generated by the bombing of densely populated areas is being harvested to develop AI products. These algorithms are then rebranded as civilian tools for managing emergency logistics and hospital systems in the West.
