Palantir CEO Alex Karp Criticizes Michael Burry for Shorting AI Companies
Alex Karp, the CEO of Palantir, criticized Michael Burry, known for his role in 'The Big Short,' for placing significant bets against AI companies Nvidia and Palantir. Karp called Burry 'bats--- crazy' for these short positions. This criticism came after Karp made several notable statements, including viewing AI as dangerous, denying a New York Times report about Palantir's involvement in extensive data collection, and positioning Palantir as the first 'completely anti-woke' company. During an earnings call, Karp also made comments about fentanyl, ICE, and popcorn, and praised retail traders for their support, describing them as 'fighting for the [company].' Palantir had a strong Q3 performance.
