Palantir CEO Alex Karp argues model companies calling for regulation are really trying to escape the first line of defense: civil and criminal liability for building technology that could 'destroy 10% of the world.' He says the only way out of that liability is to ask the government to nationalize them, and quips that 'everyone who understands this is on some payroll.' A notable industry figure's take on the AI regulation debate and lab accountability.
