I find that ChatGPT for health is basically a neutral observer (which matches this data - everything it returns is the median crisis level). How critical you take the information it offers is really left up to the user, which isn't great

It's one thing to take a principled stand against working with the Pentagon (disagree, but I understand). It's another thing to want the “ethical” revenues but want to pick and choose the “unethical” ones.

This has to be one of the craziest corp governance stories that no one is paying any attention to. Some analysis of Palantir's latest SEC filings https://twitter.com/...
2020-09-04 View on X
TechCrunch

In an amended S-1 filing, Palantir says it won't have independent board governance for up to a year from its listing date

When we leaked Palantir's S-1 IPO filing a week and a half ago, one of the more bizarre components that came out of that document was the company's corporate governance.

A smaller scooplet, but this is novel - the flexibility of a DL with the constraints on employees of a traditional IPO. I guess we will know the final details in the SEC filing https://twitter.com/...

TechCrunch

Leaked Palantir S-1 shows the company had 2019 revenue of $742M, up ~25% YoY, and a net loss of $580M, about the same as in 2018

Palantir filed an S-1 confidentially to the SEC in early July, but we have so far been waiting for the final doc to be published for weeks now with nary a murmur.
