Palantir CTO Says 100s of Founders Pivoted to National-Interest Tech Since Trump's Return

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jul 16

Summary

  • Hundreds of tech founders are now building “in the national interest” since Donald Trump returned to the White House, Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar said in a podcast interview released Thursday.
  • At the Pennsylvania Defense and Innovation Summit, Sankar tied that shift to AI’s economic payoff, arguing the technology is expanding labor demand rather than replacing workers.
  • One Pennsylvania submarine-parts manufacturer cut production planning from two weeks to 0.2 seconds with AI, added a third shift and needed more workers, he said.
  • The remarks landed as debate over AI infrastructure intensifies after New York froze new data-center construction, while Trump and allies at the summit pushed faster defense-tech and AI development.
