So let me get this straight. NVIDIA already controls the hardware you need to run AI. Now they’re partnering with Palantir, a company literally built on government surveillance contracts, to build what they’re calling an “AI Operating System.” Think about what that means for a second. An operating system is the thing everything else runs on top of. You don’t opt out of it. You don’t compete with it. You just pay the toll and comply with its rules. This isn’t a product launch. This is two companies trying to become the landlord of all of AI. Every startup, every enterprise, every government deployment would eventually be sitting on infrastructure these two entities control. NVIDIA takes the compute layer, Palantir takes the data and deployment layer, and together they’ve effectively boxed out anyone who doesn’t play ball with them. And Palantir of all companies. The company with deep ties to intelligence agencies, a founder who openly talks about building systems for war, and a track record of selling data analytics tools to entities most people would find deeply uncomfortable. That’s who gets to co-own the foundation everything runs on? People are out here worried about AI taking their jobs and the actual story is the infrastructure consolidation happening underneath all of it. When two private companies own the OS, they own the rules. They own the kill switch. They own the pricing. They own the access. This should be front page news everywhere. Instead it’s a LinkedIn graphic. submitted by /u/PostEnvironmental583
