“EA as Antichrist: Understanding Peter Thiel” by Ben_West🔸
“The Antichrist probably presents as a great humanitarian, it's redistributive, it's an extremely great philanthropist, as an effective altruist, all of those kinds of things.” - Peter Thiel Effective altruism has more than its share of critics. But Peter Thiel, the billionaire cofounder of PayPal and Palantir, is unusual in that, when he describes us as the “Antichrist,” he does not mean this as a generic slur but rather as a specific claim that we oppose Jesus Christ in the Second Coming. This document is intended just as an explication of his views, I neither endorse...

Software Palantir sucht Verbrecher - Kann sie uns bald alle überwachen? | Gotham Peter Thiel

Die Bundesländer drängen auf eine einheitliche Plattform zur Datenanalyse, um Verbrechen besser zu bekämpfen. Bis die fertig ist, setzen einige Länder schon auf ein Produkt von Palantir, einer Firma, hinter der der Trump-Freund Peter Thiel steht. Unter Datenschützern ist die Software sehr umstritten. In diesem Podcast fragen wir Technik-Journalist Peter Welchering, was die Software kann, warum sie manchmal zweifelhafte Schlüsse zieht und: holen wir uns mit Palantir-Software Überwachung aus den USA ins Haus?

Unf*cking Flashback: What’s the deal with Peter Thiel? Sociopathic billionaire man-child wants to eat the world.
In October of 2022, we released this episode on Peter Thiel. The last line of the story is that he’s a monster. At the time, we were focused on his personal selections and funding of Congressional candidates, one of whom was none other than JD Vance. Far from his purported hillbilly roots, the country quickly came to know that JD is little more than a huckster who grew up pretty well and became a go-to hedge fund guy for Peter Thiel. Amazingly, Thiel is still on the backburner of people’s awareness and given Vance’s sudden rise to VP pro...

Peter Thiel's Contrarian Advice for Startups: Book Insights on Zero to One by Peter Thiel
*Every new invention or discovery since we learned to ignite fire and make the wheel changes how we live. *Perhaps on the surface Facebook and the iPhone aren’t as momentous or paradigm-shifting as Newton discovering gravity, or Alexander Fleming discovering penicillin, but the impact of these two advances in technology and communication on society is seismic. *In fact, for PayPal founder and legendary investor and entrepreneur Peter Thiel, these feats of technology are minor miracles. *Thiel argues that the future belongs to – and will be made by – the people who will find and follo...

Peter Thiel's Military-Industrial Senate Candidate w/ Eli Clifton
On this edition of Parallax Views, tech billionaire Peter Thiel, known for his libertarian and conservative political leanings, infamously backed Donald Trump's successful 2016 Presidential bid. Although Trump may be out of office, Thiel hasn't given up on using his immense wealth to back political candidates presenting themselves as "populists" in the Trumpian mold. For example, he has contributed to the Senate campaign of Hillbilly Elegy author J.D. Vance in Ohio. He's also contributed $10 million dollars to the Arizona Senate candidate Blake Masters.

At that time, his salary qualified him to contribute to his Roth IRA and he placed 1.7 million shares of Paypal into his account. The shares started off at the value of one-tenth of one penny ($1700), and after Paypal went public, those same shares rose to over $50 each. With all this wealth in his Roth IR...

Zero to One - Peter Thiel & Blake Masters
Peter Thiel, the founder and original CEO of PayPal, the first outside investor in Facebook and a partner in the venture capital firm Founders Fund, offers his original perspective on entrepreneurship, investing, future profits and the VC “Power Law.” His illuminating essays began as lectures for his famous class on start-ups at Stanford University. Thiel contends that doing what’s already been done takes you on a journey to nowhere – from “1 to n,” or zero. But when you make something new – a business, a product or a work of art – Thiel believes you travel from “0 to 1.”Globalization is an example of horizontal...

Once upon a time, in the heyday of social prognostication, many Americans believed that gadget-related knowledge would surely yield immeasurable leaps forward in the progress of the human species.
