Palantir, the company founded by billionaire Peter Thiel, is unveiling the Palantir Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP). This software aims to run large language models, such as GPT-4 and its alternatives, on private networks. Palantir showcased how a military might leverage AIP in a pitch video. In the given scenario, an operator uses a ChatGPT-style chatbot to perform tasks such as drone reconnaissance, planning a course of action, and disruption of enemy communications. Although the demonstration video displays a human in control of the decisions, they largely rely on the chatbot to evaluate circumstances and determine action. While drone warfare has distanced soldiers from the consequences of their actions, Palantir's AIP takes this further by automating warfare decisions. Palantir's offering is not a military-specific AI or large language model (LLM) but an integration of existing systems. It supports open-source LLMs and custom plug-ins, despite known issues with some AI systems. In response to concerns over ethical and legal consequences, Palantir's AIP assures that its deployment into classified networks and devices will be secure and responsible. The platform aims to give users control over the LLMs and AI systems, as well as provide a digital record of actions in operations. The company emphasizes the importance of transparency and accountability for AI technology in sensitive and classified settings. However, questions remain as to whether the system's guardrails will be enough to ensure ethical warfare.
