Rebooting the Arsenal of Democracy

- Starting in the 1960s, technology companies, funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, were essential for creating the processors that would eventually launch satellites and guide missiles. Half a century later, today’s tech companies can - and need - to move even faster and smarter, as international adversaries scale up their aggressions. In this presentation, Anduril Industries Founder Palmer Luckey will discuss how Silicon Valley is using new technologies to build new tools, systems, and companies to defend our nation and its interests.
Here's how you know he's a patriot. He is pushing for MORE competition to compete against HIS company. He's not about making a buck, he's about protecting our nation and democracy. How on earth can he be considered controversial? FYI, I'm a lifelong Democrat.
Palmer Luckey is one of the true patriots of these days (A Tony Stark you might say). God bless this man y I hope that more young people has this mindset.
8:55 Engineers want to see their code deployed, their robots in motion, their products out in the world making an impact-and they don't want to wait years, or even decades for that to happen.

This is a brilliant man. Truly inspiring, and an eye opening talk. I'm not American, but I'm rooting for Anduril.
Palmer Luckey: National Treasure
My favorite way of shrinking our defense budget: Getting real competition for government money, like there is for consumer money. People underrate the idea that if the DoD could get their gear for less, much more money could go to things like bike lanes and school lunches and railroads.
...or lower income tax.
Smart dude. He is going to be able to get the best engineering talent.
Super smart, brutally honest, and a patriot. Good luck, Palmer! It’s such a shame for some people to judge you based on your political beliefs which you are ENTITLED to.
Awesome
This idea, that it is moral and good to pursue military superiority, hinges on the morality of our foreign policy and of our various political actions taken as a country. What we will do with these weapons is put them in the hands of the State Dept, CIA, and in the hands of any regime we choose to sell weapons to. This is a pot that contains both good and bad elements, and it is not particularly democratic in how it applies force.Because what we will do with these weapons is put them in the hands of the State Dept, CIA, and in the hands of any regime we choose to sell weapons to. Most Americans have little to no say over how this force is applied, and even the presidents we elect seem unable to influence it much. We will use these weapons even without any congressional declaration of war. At best, I'd say that our use of force is a 50/50 mix of good and bad, based on what I know of our track record, and I'd probably even lean more to the negative. And, if democracy is so important to you, are we to assume that you have taken steps to ensure that your technology is never purchased by Saudi Arabia, for example? And also take the Ukraine issue. You say that you would have armed a movement that ousted a democratically-elected politician (Yanokovich) and started a civil war which was probably avoidable. So what you are really supporting is a nationalist coup and one side of a civil war, not necessarily "democracy".
On the far end of the scale, we can probably all agree that it would have been immoral to be a weapons developer for the Nazis under Hitler. But I think the modern American case falls more to the middle of that scale. Though I think we fall a little more on the side of evil than on the good. I do not see us very often protecting the innocent with our military might, and in addition our sheer incompetence at managing global affairs may sometimes be even worse than malice. Positive cases, for me, are Taiwan and Bosnia. Negative cases are too many to count, and many of them occurred many decades ago, but would include Vietnam, huge swaths of South America, the Palestine/Israel issue, and Iraq. I don't think the balance is good enough to support this idea that our weapons are "the arsenal of democracy". Not while we are run by neocon takes on global politics. This is why so many people love RFK Jr. It really does matter that we strive for an atmosphere of global trust, and the prime job of a president should be to prevent war.
I lean left but it always dissapoints me how unpatriotic and ashamed the left seems to be of America. Palmer Lucky is a guy we need for the future.
"Augmented reality emoji mustaches" I love it!
I suppose we should thank all those Blue-Haired Cry Bully’s for forcing Lucky out of FB/Meta so he could do something more substantial for out Nation than cry over Hillary’s defeat.
Wow this really is revenge of the nerds...
Somebody needs a girlfriend lulz...
Nobody can say this damn companies name right. Half say Andur-ALL and the other say Andur-ILL . FFS
I like him but he keeps repeating the incorrect statement that Elon started with a billion dollars... He didn't. He had a few tens of millions. About the same as this guy did when he started his company.
Arsenal of Liberalism would be a better title
The guy is republican. Far from woke liberalism.
@@chesstictacs3107 Liberalism as a term was hijacked by the woke left. And outside of America, Liberalism still means classical liberalism.
@@chesstictacs3107 doesn't matter anymore.
the DOD doesn't have as much AI as a tractor..... okay... but this guy must have never heard of sattelites and how they are tracking everyone in ukraine right now....
From movies, you'd think there is an orbital system that can provide continuous high resolution coverage of the Earth sufficient to track small, slow moving objects from space. Aperture size for that resolutiin, low, fast moving satellites 300 miles away or geostationary 24,000 miles away make it much more difficult problem than people might imagine
Think you guys are confusing “surveillance” technology with AI.
"Must have never heard of satellites.." lol that's an impressive strawman you built in your mind - all to make the most useless point :) hella insightful...
Satellite meet clouds😆
Shame this guy is a Trump supporter, smart dude.
Shame he is shilling for the MIC. I could care less who he votes for.
Pretty sure he's more anti woke than pro Trump. More pro right if anything
@Zippy Dastrange If you were to remove every identifiable feature of both of them leaving only the fact that they are/were both Presidents then that's true but otherwise no.
@@pythagoran In October 2020, Luckey hosted a fundraiser for Donald Trump at his home in Lido Isle, Newport Beach, with the president in attendance.
@Zippy Dastrange American bipartisan infrastructure bill, child tax credit, inflation reduction act, CHIPS and science act, rejoined Paris climate accord, rallied Europe against Russia in Ukraine, sent MRAPS to Ukraine which otherwise would be useless to the US, pushed to remove Russia from SWIFT, progressively forgave student loans, negotiated with Netherlands (ASML) and Japan to restrict export of advanced chipmaking equipment to China, placed export controls on high end chips to China, restricted Americans from being involved in the manufacturing of chips in China, ended war in Afghanistan, brought Japan from hiding to counter China, created AUKUS to cooperate with the UK and Australia to counter China, took several actions to secure supply chain of rare earth elements, sanctioned Iranians responsible for human rights abuses, announced end of support for Saudi Arabia in Yemen and stopped weapon sales. There's probably more that's some things Biden has done. And it's not like Trump didn't do anything either.
Palmer and Elon will take over the world one day.........hmmmmmmmmm
Your going down palmer, im going to get a higher score than you ever will.
