Critics call for removal of Palantir's AI surveillance software from HCA hospitals
The article criticizes Palantir, a major AI surveillance company with extensive U.S. government contracts (Pentagon, DoD, ICE), for partnering with HCA hospitals to test its automated staffing software called Timpani. It references a recent Palantir manifesto that the author claims attacks democratic norms and advocates for endless wars. The piece argues that violence-enabling tech corporations should not operate in healthcare settings like hospitals.
