I could listen to Shyam talk for hours. He is obviously technically knowledgeable, but he is also very business savvy, and finds a way to just be big brained enough to pull together very abstract concepts and dilute them down so even this knuckle dragger understands what he is saying. His passion for all things Palantir is contagious.
No lol
He got zero original ideas and everything comes from either Alexa Karp or Peter Thiel. He is just way lucky to be at the right place at the right time. One way to know his value in the company is to know how easily replicable he is.
Wow… this company is the epitome of innovation 🚀🚀
Shyam is always extraordinarily polished and should really be the face of PLTR. He rarely uses thinking words like uh or um compared to Cathie. He’s also much more coherent than Karp with how he explains what PLTR does and gives relatable, clear examples.
Be positive, do not compare unless you want to do it with yourself. Stop using other people in the room to make your point , if you must do it,
use your self, Dr Karp and the economist are obviously abobe your level so please have some respect.
Shyam is just so brillant in the way he connects deep technical knowledge with business understanding and eloquence. Couldn' think of a better CTO for Palantir. I hope he will stay with PLTR for a looooong time.
I hope he helped Boeing. Boeing is in a mess. Door came out, bolts fell off, wheels dropped out after taking off. Boeing's got serious problem.
So glad Cathie asked about Gingko!
This guy is very clever. I almost need to go through it again to fully grasp everything.
Awesome discussion! Palantir has been and continues to be at the forefront of innovation!
One of the best podcasts with Shyam! He’s incredibly smart, eloquent and a delight to listen to! I really think Palantir should put him more on stage with Alex - you’ll have the best of both worlds!
On a side note, my long term conviction in this company has been strengthening significantly these last three years and this podcast exemplifies how far ahead they are! Excited to see what’s coming next with AIP and how they will monetise this platform.
Always great to get the inside perspective!

Great podcast and Shyman should definitely be at the side of Karp whenever they present anything about Palantir’s technology and how to use it. .. He is terrific !!
DATA is GOLD in the age of AI Revolution. The way is human AI teaming
What a free education!
Good discussion!
Sachin, the main man.
Awesome podcast. Thanks
Great job, Shyam!
Shyam! Bonjour de Toulouse. Airbus adore Palantir !
Good to hear that. So i guess Airbus is still using Skywise?
Great pod.
Wow, Shyam speaks so well. Can we get more of him in front of cameras instead of Alex 😅
I appreciate your asking him the question about “sleepers”, though I disagree with his response. Of course, an incumbent would say that there are no sleepers in the space and that it will just be the incumbents who benefit.
thank you I wish I can learn more. I will reply it.
So they organise data?
Yes
Organize Data and prioritize data ingestion to drive outcomes in the best way to drive profitable revenue outcomes in a way it is best understood by humans IMHO.
Raise your hand if anyone understood what their product!
I believe in Palantir but saying it will be the largest software company in the world is a bit exaggerated. You have to accelerate your revenue growth a lot faster than what is it today to even consider that outcome. I hope you can get there
Did you hear Dr. Karp say he'd like to be the mediator between the AI Companies that lack accreditation to be vendors to the military and that Palantir's current affiliation would allow them to bypass the associated bureaucracy?
Yeah Shyam!
Cool
the fact u guys didnt know type safe, is scary and ur top tech focused fund lmao
The woman was so cringe in this video. All she cared about was investing in the next new thing, while guarding the billions she already has stashed away. The same mentality that colonized the new world. No concern about the harm, only the profits.
Fairly competent fortune 100 corp. type working across strategy, OpEx, tech delivery, & data: Every time I listen to these guys talk shop I think; "why aren't we using this!?"
Seriously; I genuinely don't understand. PLTR is a 20 year company solving huge problems that have existed at scale for almost the same amount of time. What's the disconnect? If so exciting, and so capable (I've never used), why haven't you already penetrated? Why aren't you on the 3 year roadmap? Where are you in the benchmarks? Why aren't colleagues/executives advocating for your software? Why is this thing still some mysterious offering that few have used/seen/know about?
*PALANTIR!!!!!!!!!*
Proof is in protein Cathy
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Salute to ARK🎉🎉
long
If you can't explain your product in 3 mins you don't have any product
If you think you can explain LLMs working on neural networks for different companies data in 3 minutes good luck.
probably got over your head, its not a subject thats easy
Chinese scientist leads and dominate in all the generative AI patent filings.
