He told Silicon Valley that trying to gut white-collar employment while also cutting off the military is a fast track to having your technology seized by the government. The remarks were delivered at the a16z American Dynamism Summit. "If Silicon Valley believes we're going to take everyone's white collar jobs AND screw the military…If you don't think that's going to lead to the nationalization of our technology— you're retarded." -Alex Karp @palantirtech at @a16z American Dynamism Summit pic.twitter.com/4tslXaDP6t Katherine Boyle, co-founder of American Dynamism and general partner at a16z, posted a video clip of Karp’s comments on X on Wednesday. Don't Miss: Karp’s Blunt Warning To The Tech Industry “If Silicon Valley believes we’re going to take everyone’s white collar jobs AND screw the military…If you don’t think that’s going to lead to the nationalization of our technology — you’re retarded,” Karp said. Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar has also pushed back on the doom-and-gloom narrative around AI and jobs. Speaking on the All-In podcast in July 2025, Sankar argued AI gives workers “superpowers” rather than pink slips. The comment lands at a charged moment. The AI industry is navigating mounting tension between its commercial ambitions, its workforce impact, and its complicated relationship with the U.S. defense establishment. Anthropic CEO Had Already Sounded The Alarm On Jobs Karp’s remarks follow a warning issued in January by Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei. In a roughly 20,000-word essay, Amodei argued that the risks AI poses are not being taken seriously — and that a labor market “shock” unlike anything seen before is coming.

These Are The Retailers That Change Prices Most Often...And When They Offer The Largest Discounts Dynamic pricing is becoming a defining feature of modern retail, with more of America’s best-known brands adjusting prices in real time based on demand, timing, and market conditions, according to Decodo . A new report from Decodo, which analyzed more than 1.5 million data points across 120 global eCommerce retailers, reveals which companies are changing prices most often — and when shoppers are most likely to find a deal. At the top of the list is Amazon, which recorded 116,509 price changes over the past year — far more than any other retailer analyzed. The online marketplace also offered the deepest average discounts, with prices dropping by 35.3% on average. According to the data, Wednesday is the best day for shoppers to find bargains on Amazon. Walmart ranked second with 68,926 price adjustments and an average discount of 10.6%, while Kroger came third, making 55,601 changes with an average 9.1% reduction. For both Walmart and Kroger, Monday emerged as the most favorable day for deals. Other major retailers also showed significant pricing activity. Target recorded 39,386 changes, with Saturday offering the best savings. In electronics, Best Buy posted over 30,000 price shifts, with Friday standing out for discounts. Fashion brands were particularly active, with companies such as H&M, Uniqlo, and ASOS frequently adjusting prices to keep pace with trends and demand. The United States leads the world in dynamic pricing activity, accounting for 542,946 price changes — far ahead of Germany, India, the United Kingdom, and Korea. Notably, U.S. price shifts were almost evenly split between increases and decreases, reflecting a highly competitive retail environment. This challenges the perception that dynamic pricing primarily pushes costs upward, as roughly half of all recorded adjustments were price reductions. Decodo found that that by sector, fashion experienced the gr...

Representatives of the A$4.5 trillion ($3.2 trillion) Australian pensions industry will head to the US next week, seeking to showcase the scale of the sector’s investments in the world’s largest economy. The second annual Australian Superannuation Investment Summit, organized by the nation’s government and Macquarie Group , will take place from March 8-13 in San Francisco, Washington and New York, according to a statement Friday. US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer , Anthropic PBC President Daniela Amodei and Blackstone Inc. Chief Executive Officer Steve Schwarzman are among those due to speak at the summit, the release showed. Australia’s pension pool, known locally as superannuation, is forecast to become the largest after the US by the early 2030s. About half of its assets are invested offshore as record inflows force the funds to look beyond their own backyard for returns. The level of retirement fund exposure to US assets offers Australia a way of keeping trade ties on track with the Trump administration, given its focus on attracting foreign investment. Superannuation “is increasingly a part of modern diplomacy,” David Whiteley , global head of external relations at IFM Investors, said in emailed comments.
