Indeed, itwasJ. C. R. Licklider, a legendary official at the Defense AdvancedResearch Projects Agency, who was a pioneer in proposing the ideaof a "man-computersymbiosis."
Since Kasparov and Deep Blue squared off, we have seen numerous examples of man-computer symbiosis, while A.I. relying solely on computers as Minsky theorized it remains tantalizing, yet distant.
The foundation of Palantir is a belief in the potential of human-computer symbiosis, and the possibility of doing something transformative for the world is a potent lens for evaluating both personal and technical potential.
