@@adammontgomery7980you represent one of the biggest problems the USA faces today: You‘re smart enough to put 2 and 2 together, but 2E2 is a problem for you.

You clearly missed the point where the talk was about software winning the war. But even if you hadn‘t, you obviously wouldn‘t have the slightest clue of what is going on in Ukraine in this regard. But maybe there‘s still a chance?
“Is this street legal?” “We are on a street, aren’t we?” Such an interesting way to answer this. I love this. Obviously this is not street legal but how quick he replied is awesome. This is how they break stuff and move fast in this field. Ask forgiveness later.
The problem with that is it only works when the person is responsible. Irresponsible people also want to just "ask for forgiveness, not permission", then next thing you know someone is dead, and instead of forgiveness they get prison time.
@@Vaeldarg i understand what you mean. I wasn’t directly talking specifically“road vehicle “ but “ask forgiveness” in business in general. At work for example sometimes I do things without asking because if I do it’s much more complicated and long than just doing it. That type of attitude in Palmer industry probably is what makes them where they are. A little piece of why
@@JeromeDemers There can be different reasons for why it is more complicated and longer of a process. It isn't always just unnecessary bureaucracy, sometimes there's a reason for it and the extra time could allow you to realise if you've missed something in your haste/eagerness. There is no "Palmer industry", as it said it's simply behaving as a startup tech company but fully involved with the military as its customers. And "what makes them where they are" tends to involve a lot of disregard for safety/practicality of their products. "move fast and break things" is also known as "being reckless".

Also, Anduril is a private company getting US government contracts to produce defense tech. They don't need generic corporate quarterly plans. Quarterly plans are for companies who need to placate public shareholders without doing anything novel.
yes.. when the world population becomes very angry when most jobs are made obsolete then those AI robotic weapons systems will be something that many humans will not feel are so entertaining, or moral, as he and this video try to make out
His personality is irrelevant. As long as his company can deliver technology that ensures fewer and fewer of our country's precious service men/women are hurt in the line of duty, I am all for it and wish him the best of luck.
Loved it. I knew Palmer back when he was messing around with Dingoo retro handhelds and dreaming of building his own VR helmet. Glad to see he's doing well.
Uhhh no, he's almost definitely a psychopath. Psychopaths will do whatever they can to subvert your interpretation of them in order to not be classed as a threat, so his hippy hairstyles, birkenstocks and Hawaiian shirts are a classic way to throw you off his scent.
Our society ... War is supposed to be something you engage in reluctantly and with appreciation of the damage it causes, not some weird fetishistic combination of Hugh Hefner, Iron Man and Gordon Gecko. We know that war happens and the military is necessary but it shouldn't be sexy.

This guy is correct and incorrect. Battles are won by those who are willing to fight them. Wars are won by those endure the outcome of every battle. Tech can enable but cannot define the outcome of wars and battles, ultimately it is human will that defines the outcome
Better tactics and even more crucial - solid logistics - can do wonders for a military force. These are force multipliers because the reality is the US and the west don't have the capacity to mobilize their populations anymore like the foes they may face.
You need both tech and human will. The Allies didn't have better military tech in WW2, but they did have better manufacturing tech. The will to outbuild the Axis military was just as important as the will to fight; without both the world order would be very different today.
I worry about the ethics and morals of libertarian tech bros. I feel like they'll do anything their minds tell them to do because they chafe at limits/constraints and are propelled by a sense of their own invincibility.
To navigate the DoD acquisition process its practically a requirement. Despite the "fair" bidding process, you still need the relationships to the actual customer and who would know the customer better than retired leaders from the customer?

Do you see that the age of George W Bush type US adventures into other lands have stopped because no-one has a taste for them any longer (fortunately) but the world still needs every democracy to step up and support every other nation and people's sovereignty. This chip-on-his-shoulder dufus is trying to lower the cost for the US to actually turn up and be helpful. We can't afford what the other contractors are building in terms of price tag and time to delivery. And we can't ask Putin nicely to hand over the 20,000 officially recognized kidnapped children and the many tens of thousands more who haven't been officially tagged. Nor help the 4 million people caught and forgotten in the occupied territories. Every recovered town showed mass killings. What are we doing about it? We are keeping the story suppressed so we don't have to mess with Russia because we're not ready to deal with that. Facts! But you go on complaining about the embodied CO2 in a plastic straw.

For sure the Ukraine war has highlighted the need for innovation. Drones are critical to winning a war now. Drones and systems that can interfere with opposing drones' communication. Great piece on this topic. Thanks! And thank you America for standing up for democracy and freedom.
These comments make no sense to me! Nothing in the interview made me think this guy is a genius, or has anything at all to offer. Talk about a bot swarm! Come on RUclips! I don’t pay for premium to read bot comments all day
What the US needs to win over China is a "Naval Aviation made huge battleships obsolete" moment just like how carriers made the Yamato obsolete before she was even launched. You can imagine how this is deeply unpopular considering the carriers and advantages the USN has right now. But we need to invent and build things that make even our own biggest strengths obsolete!
+Just seven years ago, people would have slammed this made man for having a presented collection of figurines and a DnD table.

A very populist move.

As someone who's worked in this sector this is a refreshing change. Defence companies have gotten complacent thanks to archaic Government bureaucracy..
Palmer Lucky: When I sold Oculus I was worth 2 billion dollars. Now, 10 years later I am worth 1.8. You do the maths.
He is such a Silicon Valley TV show character
Absolutely fascinating. And what a series and so well done!!
Bloomberg schilling for the military industrial complex
This is an attack on the military industrial complex more than anything
incredible video. beautiful editing and stellar execution. really enjoyed the interview.
Emily Chang living her best life and dropping 🔥 interviews. I honestly love to see it.
Emily Chan finally meets her biggest fan, 4chan. 😂
Amazing interview. Great guy who thinks outside the box. We cannot move forward as a nation with an old way of thinking. This is not WWII
What an impressive person. I wonder how a person like this leads people. He has accomplished so much at his age but when and how did he learn to motivate and lead. Not saying he doesn’t do this well, but when did he have the time to learn to do it?
"we are waiting for the system to adjust." 🤔 Will we adjust fast enough?
and have we turned it the right direction?
Or like in Soviet Russia, does the system adjust us?
@20:50 on what he says about the dynamics of our reliance and dependence with US supply chain
This is amazing content! Thank you!
The JCIDS callout is a thing of beauty lol
one of the best episodes
I love that the cameraman got into the spirit with his shirt! 😅
Dude is 😎. “Time to Build.” Indeed!
I love thinkers like him. Clear and thought through.
I think this kind of practical guys with their superficial rationalizations will bring down our civilization...
Really have to scroll quite a bit through comments to find a reasonable one here. Thanks, at least someone who isn't hyped by this sh*t.
@@TheLeontheking As opposed to ignoring the problem until we end up in a major war? Jeez, I guess you play chess one step ahead. Well the world plays it multiple steps ahead...
@@joythought The answer to our world's problems can't be to produce more and newer weapons, but on !!honest!! diplomacy between major powers. Weapons are never for defense only, but can always be used for the offense as well. And private weapon manufacturers are the worst kind - they gain from an increase in conflict, so what do you think their incentives are?
@@TheLeontheking How does honest diplomacy work when russia decides to invade ukraine and they were asked not to for a long time before doing so and when china inevitably invades taiwan? i dont think honest diplomacy accomplishes anything in these circumstances
That was an exceptional interview. Emily is adorable.
This guy is a great American
he loves japan
I would use the same words, but if you had a sarcasm meter, it would detect that I'm at 100% sarcasm levels.
@@mitkoogrozev and who do you apologize for? What dictator or terrorist group do you pitch for? Do you see that the age of George W Bush type US adventures into other lands have stopped because no-one has a taste for them any longer (fortunately) but the world still needs every democracy to step up and support every other nation and people's sovereignty. This chip-on-his-shoulder dufus is trying to lower the cost for the US to actually turn up and be helpful. We can't afford what the other contractors are building in terms of price tag and time to delivery. And we can't ask Putin nicely to hand over the 20,000 officially recognized kidnapped children and the many tens of thousands more who haven't been officially tagged. Nor help the 4 million people caught and forgotten in the occupied territories. Every recovered town showed mass killings. What are we doing about it? We are keeping the story suppressed so we don't have to mess with Russia because we're not ready to deal with that. Facts! But you go on complaining about the embodied CO2 in a plastic straw.
I still can't get over he has a LEGIT autotopia car from OG disneyland that he just drives around. I love this guy. "I only have six helicopters, now. I like buying old US nuclear bases and storing the world's biggest videogame collection down there." A man of culture for the ages.
Can we just step back for a moment and let it sink in that 'Anduril' and 'Palantir' are unironically on the same side, and doing work that others have refused to do because of ethical concerns?
Someone connect the wires to JRRs grave and then call the Dept of Energy
Yes both funded by peter thiel.
Palmer Luckey big Thank You for what you are doing and all success for your company!
@0:24: To nitpick, it's not the fastest boat the US Navy ever built. That honor goes to the hydrofoil Pegasus class, with PHM Pegasus being the lead boat and flagship.
western democracies need more people like this guy.
2:29 / 29:12
Anduril's Founder>eLON i LOVE THIS GUY GENIUS
amazing series and guests and the host!
I like this dude! He could have just sat back and enjoyed his mountain of money after his Oculus Quest sale. But he's actually a patriot and cares about western civilization.
Palmer Lucky is my favorite tech person. He beat Elon in my ranking some time ago.
For sure the Ukraine war has highlighted the need for innovation. Drones are critical to winning a war now. Drones and systems that can interfere with opposing drones' communication. Great piece on this topic. Thanks! And thank you America for standing up for democracy and freedom.
That dude demonstrate pretty clearly that America stand only for War.
Ah, Peter Thiel.. now Lucky Palmer makes sense 😂
What Luckey says here makes a lot of sense especially about Putin.
These comments make no sense to me! Nothing in the interview made me think this guy is a genius, or has anything at all to offer. Talk about a bot swarm! Come on RUclips! I don’t pay for premium to read bot comments all day
What if the people making the comments have more knowledge of the subject matter, and are commenting in this video that they enjoyed watching?
What a great journalist
Time to fleece the US tax coffers like Palantir 😂😂
Emily did a great job! Palmer is a wildly interesting guy
never realized not wanting to be a part of murdering people was being emotional.
Ethics is still a thing
It obviously is. These google engineers aren’t doing an in depth moral calculation about lives saved by the tech vs lives lost.
Putin and Xi are counting on you being... emotional.
These people are so naïve and sort sighted they don't realise a lot more people are going to suffer if the defence of America isn't secure
What the US needs to win over China is a "Naval Aviation made huge battleships obsolete" moment just like how carriers made the Yamato obsolete before she was even launched.
You can imagine how this is deeply unpopular considering the carriers and advantages the USN has right now. But we need to invent and build things that make even our own biggest strengths obsolete!
100%
The second I saw the Kirito and Asuna figurines I knew I liked this guy.
this keeps popping up and my feed and the whole feel of this promotional puff piece makes me throw up in my mouth a little each time
I threw up in Palmer Lucky's mouth
+Just seven years ago, people would have slammed this made man for having a presented collection of figurines and a DnD table. This was once strongly associated with the Boogie2988 character that represented the typical basement dweller. He is I fear leveraging that contrast in addition to appealing to certain demographics. A very populist move.
