Palantir CEO Alex Karp has said that artificial intelligence (AI) could shift economic influence away from highly educated voters who tend to support Democrats and toward vocationally trained, working-class men.
In an interview with CNBC, Karp discussed the broader societal impact of artificial intelligence and how it is expected to transform employment.
“This technology disrupts humanities-trained, largely Democratic voters, and makes their economic power less.”
“And increases the economic power of vocationally trained, working-class, often male, uh voters,” Karp said.
“So these disruptions are gonna disrupt every aspect of our society,” he said.
“To make this work, we have to come to an agreement of what it is we’re going to do with the technology; how are we gonna explain to people who are likely gonna have less good, and less interesting jobs.”
