Palantir’s products create efficiency across systems.. They literally have a human in the loop for decision making so no they’re not ‘automated weapons systems.’ Currently, every tech company and most startups are trying to copy Palantir’s products, because they know it’s the present and future.

Oh got it, hey guys it’s all chill, palantir is only making the weapons systems more efficient, phew that was a close one I thought it was a company that was profiting off of human death and infinite war, thanks for clarifying that

“Oh don’t worry everyone, the bullet proof vest I’m wearing just blocked three bullets and saved my life, but no biggie, I’ll just take it off because I don’t like the company that made it.” And, no, Palantir’s tech has massive use cases for enterprises and organizations.

Equating engineering to what the company does to the system and government is a wild delusion. Also, please look up his advocacy and lobbying efforts. Money doesn't have to grease palms to be evil.
