With all the talk of AI taking over jobs, I think there is a class of worker which never gets discussed in the "jobs displacement" conversation and that's the spook. The question nobody is asking out loud is, what happens to the spooks when Palantir takes over? What happens when those trained in surveillance, psychological operations, and asymmetric warfare find themselves without a seat at the table? Do they transition peacefully into the private sector? Or do they become free agents in a world where information itself is the ultimate weapon? Hmmm I wonder... 🤔
