Palantir CEO Alex Karp thinks his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men.
“This technology disrupts humanities-trained—largely Democratic—voters, and makes their economic power less. And increases the economic power of vocationally trained, working-class, often male, working-class voters,” Karp said in a CNBC interview Thursday. “And so these disruptions are gonna disrupt every aspect of our society. And to make this work, we have to come to an agreement of what it is we’re going to do with the technology; how are we gonna explain to people who are likely gonna have less good, and less interesting jobs.”
High educated women aren’t office workers though.
So being a CEO of a tech company isn’t an office job? Being a software engineer writing code is not an office job? Being a graphic designer at a magazine isn’t an office job?
Where do you think those women work? Yeah, some become doctors or work in science labs, but most people with college degrees work in an office.
It’s a management job.
Office work implies secretary and data processing. Phone service.
Yes it’s true doctors work in offices but we don’t say being a doctor is “office work”. We say they work in a clinic or hospital.
Engineers work at firms
Lawyers work at firms
Researchers work in labs/, universities or R&D.
The term “office work” is typically used for mid to low wage work done by people with limited college or university degrees. Like associates or bachelors at most.
I’m sure the guy saying it believes that’s the only higher up jobs that women have.
“Office workers”. Secretaries.
