Largest Dutch pension fund cuts ties with controversial tech firm Palantir

ABP, the Netherlands’ largest pension fund, has withdrawn from the controversial AI company Palantir, the Financieele Dagblad reported. Palantir is known to provide services to the American immigration service, ICE, and the Israeli army.

Six months ago, ABP still held €825 million in investments in Palantir. The pension fund for civil servants in the Netherlands has sold those shares, according to FD.

Palantir is globally renowned for its advanced AI data analysis software, which can combine colossal amounts of seemingly unrelated data such as online communications, DNA, fingerprints, financial transactions, travel records, contacts, and surveillance footage. The software is used by hundreds of intelligence and investigative services worldwide to track down all kinds of suspects. Amnesty International has warned multiple times that the use of Palintir’s software violates human rights.

If you don’t have the resources to write and understand the code yourself, you don’t have the resources to maintain it either.

Any monkey with a keyboard can write code. Writing code has never been hard. People were churning out crappy code en masse way before generative AI and LLMs. I know because I’ve seen it, I’ve had to work with it, and I no doubt wrote (and continue to write) my share of it.

What’s never been easy, and what remains difficult, is figuring out the right problem to solve, solving it elegantly, and doing so in a way that’s maintainable and sustainable given your means.

Code is not an artefact, code is a machine. Code is either a living thing or it is dead and decaying. You don’t just write code and you’re done. It’s a perpetual first draft that you constantly iterate on, and, depending on what it does and how much of that has to do with meeting the evolving needs of the people it serves, it may never be done. With occasional exceptions (perhaps? maybe?) for well-defined and narrowly-scoped tools, done code is dead code.

So much of what we call “writing” code is actually changing, iterating on, investigating issues with, fixing, and improving code. And to do that you must not only understand the problem you’re solving but also how you’re solving it (or how you thought you were solving it) through the code you’ve already written and the code you still have to write.

So it should come as no surprise that one of the hardest things in development is understanding someone else’s code, let alone fixing it when something doesn’t work as it should. Because it’s not about knowing this programming language or that (learning a programming language is the easiest part of coding), or this framework or that, or even knowing this design pattern or that (although all of these are important prerequisites for comprehension) but understanding what was going on in someone else’s head when they wrote the code the way they wrote it to solve a particular problem.

It frankly boggles my mind that some people are advocating for automating the easy part (writing code) by exponentially scaling the difficult part (understanding how exactly someone else – in this case, a junior dev who knows all the hows of things but none of the whys – decided to solve the problem). It is, to borrow a technical term, ass-backwards.

They might as well call vibe coding duct-tape-driven development or technical debt as a service.

"…a damning new study could put #AI companies on the defensive.

@jmcs I agree. Still, the “vibe code” has democratized software development and given everyone more control over bringing their ideas to life.

Lukewarm take, but I don't believe people that say they extensively check the output of the slop code their genAI agent regurgitates. Not because I think these people are bad actors, or not even because I think they are bad at what they do, but mostly because they are human.

Even when reviewing human written code, most people will give it a sanity check, and not look at it character by character, and there's been a decent amount of research proving that reviewing code is harder on our focus than writing code.

And I think slop code is quite a bit harder to review than human written code, because the kinds of errors are just different and more subtle. Slop code looks fine, but tends to be more verbose and obviously doesn't understand what it's supposed to be doing.

All this is just for me to say that I think that all these AI policies that state "but we handle AI generated code well, because unlike all these plebeians that caused all these outages at microsoft, and AWS, we actually review our slop" are deluding themselves and will fall in the same trap that the plebeians did.

Bot: (thinking...)

The bot proceeds to answer your question, at the speed of a very fast typist, but not instantly. It really gives me 14K baud modem vibes the way it pretends to "type" its answer back to you.

The bots will always pause and make you wait briefly even if it's ready spit back an answer a split second after you press enter.

Today in Labor History March 28, 1979: Three Mile Island (TMI) nuclear power plant, in Pennsylvania, had a level-5 partial meltdown, the worst nuclear power accident in U.S. history, and one of the worst in the world, prior to Chernobyl. TMI operators had not been adequately trained to handle the type of malfunction that led to the meltdown and, consequently, a delay in mitigation efforts. Clean-up began in 1993, at a cost of $2 billion in today’s dollars. Officials concluded that the release of radioactive material from the plant did not raise exposure levels of nearby residents to a level that would increase cancer cases by even one additional case. However, anti-nuclear groups hired their own independent investigators who found that radiation levels in the area were significantly elevated. A peer-reviewed study by Dr. Steven Wing found a significant increase in cancers from 1979-1985 among people living within ten miles of TMI. And in 2009, Dr. Wing said that the amount of radiation released during the accident was likely "thousands of times greater" than the NRC's estimates.

In 2024, Bill Gates obtained exclusive rights to the “carbon-free” energy from TMI, once it reopens, to power his Artificial Intelligence farms, starting in 2028. Other Tech Barons are also looking to exploit nuclear power for their energy-hungry AI farms. Data centers currently account for about 1 to 1.5 percent of global electricity use. NVIDIA will be shipping out over 1.5 million AI server units per year by 2027. These servers, alone, would consume at over 85.4 terawatt-hours of electricity annually, more than many small countries use in a year. Yet, the U.S. still has no permanent radioactive waste storage facilities. As of 2023, the U.S. had roughly 88,000 metric tons of spent nuclear fuel from commercial reactors, and all of this is stranded at the reactor sites. Experts expect this number to grow by 2,000 metric tons each year.

Revealing piece on the scale and scope of AI-induced psychosis:

"There seem to be three common delusions [..]. The most frequent is the belief that they have created the first conscious AI. The second is a conviction that they have stumbled upon a major breakthrough in their field of work or interest and are going to make millions. The third relates to spirituality and the belief that they are speaking directly to God. “We’ve seen full-blown cults getting created”

Some people may think of LLMs as the great equalizer. People who aren't programmers can vibecode working programs now. People who aren't artists can slop out something resembling art. However, it's the exact opposite.

When I was a kid, I also pretended to write programs. Of course, I didn't have such sophisticated toys ("kids could play with a stick for hours", as the hyperbole went). But then, I was fully aware that it's just make-believe and it didn't harm anybody.

#Vibecoding creates a horrible chasm of inequality. We have people who believe they're good programmers (even treating vibecoding as an enlightened religion) who shit tons of code at real human reviewers who now need to sift through. And then, we have projects embracing vibecoding and shitting new releases at unprecedented rate. And these releases again need to be reviewed by humans downstream.

I just noticed this DNS graph. The web site I took over in 2019. It's the busiest web site I have. But I really think the huge upswing in #DNS traffic is related to #AI bot scrapers. I have been struggling so hard just to make them go away. My bandwidth, compute, and web service are not for them. They are not welcome. They do not care.

• January 2026: 2,237,399 queries
• February 2026: 4,093,488 queries
• March 2026: 8,893,458 queries (so far)

Literally doubling month on month.

Now, I recently made changes to the DNS for that zone. And I made some screw-ups when I did it. So, I temporarily¹ set the TTL on the NS records to 600 seconds. I kept screwing them up and needing to change them.

Fixing the NS records this morning definitely had a benefit. Yesterday was 325,336 queries. Today was 254,492. So again, some of this is on me. But that whole 13-year DNS graph with a huge surge in the last 2 years is not all me. Stuff has changed.

¹ I remembered this morning when I was like "WTF do I have so much DNS traffic!?"

IMO the most likely cause of any kind of #AI bubble pop are Chinese models breaking through. And at least in the open inference markets, that appears to be happening already:

A true SOTA model from China could send markets for a tailspin just like the original DeepSeek release did.

Space isn't anyone's private playground — the orbital environment and night sky belong to all of us. Companies moving fast and breaking things in space without proper regulation is dangerous for everyone

Whether you are concerned or not about the harm caused by the technologies pushed on us with the current AI Hype, I highly recommend watching this excellent interview by 404 Media's @samleecole with @alex and @emilymbender from the DAIR Institute: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwBZiuH-1QY

And I say "whether you are concerned or not" because this will affect you one way or another, whether you care about it or not. In fact, it very likely already does.

I’m more certain than ever that the first quarter of 2024 will see a grand reckoning for companies that have bet big on #AI. As I said before, I predict a lot of CFOs getting sticker shock at their compute bills, and we will see pivots and downscaling of expectations across the industry. By the middle of the year, there will likely be a general cool-down as users and investors come to grips with what “AI” can realistically do at reasonable cost (hint: not as much as the hype claims). Strategically deploying smaller models will become quite attractive, rather than monolithic solutions.

I also think 2024 is the year of the legal reckoning for the industry. Creators whose work have been used for training (i.e. plagiarized) will likely make big inroads into establishing legal frameworks for compensation, and some models will become poisoned because they were trained with unvetted data. Hopefully this also means that model-makers who have been meticulous about their training data’s providence will reap rewards.

It seems hard to escape the AI virus. It's also infecting the open source world…

The siren song of AI is so compelling to finance/private equity, because it promises PROFITS WITHOUT PEOPLE. The major cost of most corporations is labor. They imagine a world where a company is just a few executives, talking to their LLM, and it all generates profit from all that capital, without worries about salaries, wages, pension plans, worker's comp, health insurance. The fact that a world full of companies without employees will have no customers never rises to their level of thought. The big AI boosters think they will be on the "winning" side -- those in the "telling the AI what to do side" rather than the "no job because it's been offloaded to automation". (even though, today, that "AI" can't actually do that job....) #AI #LLM

"I think that until the bubble bursts, AI will be used by quite a few game companies, and perhaps even beyond the bubble," says Brandon Sheffield of Necrosoft Games, which released the RPG Demonschool last year. "Look, I am not a fool — I understand that AI has some uses. Primary among those being the devaluing of work, the cheapening of labour, the laying off of creatives, and the generation of busywork for humans to fix whatever AI generates." "It's also useful for burning through water, raising the prices of RAM and chipsets globally, and poisoning anyone near the data centres that run them. So there are a lot of use cases for AI. From spurring on the death of the creative endeavour to dissolving our economy, AI is absolutely gangbusters at what it does. We don't use it in our studio though."

The use of AI in UK asylum decision-making is likely unlawful.

These tools rewrite interviews, choosing what to include and exclude.

Without knowing this, asylum applicants can't be sure accurate information is used to inform decisions.

AI is not neutral. It can discriminate and make mistakes.

It shouldn't be used to change information that informs life-changing asylum assessments. Without adequate safeguards, there's a risk that unlawful or unfair decisions may result.

@bortzmeyer The fundamental challenge at the CATALIST BoF AT #IETF125 was that you had people bringing these ideas about how the #IETF needs to do something about this bit of #AI … but they missed these basic things:

- WHAT PROBLEM NEEDS SOLVING?

- In solving the problem, what is not possible to do with existing protocols / systems / services?

There very well MAY be AI-related work that would make sense for the IETF to do.. but you need to start with the problem first!

and let me say this straight up:

Silicon Valley techbros have more class solidarity among them than their workers.

it is no coincidence that they unleashed the grift of #AI as unionization was gaining momentum among workers in the largest companies; especially Amazon, Apple and Google.

the main purpose of #AIslop is to kill any unionization efforts by tech workers.

now, more than ever, tech workers need to organize into guilds that’ll represent them beyond employment.

#AI #ExpertReview #privacy

@ai6yr I observed this effect first hand over 20 years ago supervising a dot-com era news project that was assisted by early AI technology.

It was early, but the #AI did some impressive things already. It easily outsmarted the humans who were hired to supervise it, but that was only because the humans had a lot to learn.

Once the humans caught up, the AI wasn't all that useful. What seemed like a superpower technology day one on the job would become a babysitting chore by 6 months.

Ultimately, people always preferred to do the work directly. It wasn't just less boring that way. It was also less frustrating.

What we experienced was worse than simple vigilance fatigue because it was boredom multiplied by the frustration of not having control.

If you make a mistake, you have an idea what happened and can choose to make changes. However terrible, you maintain locus of control.

When the black box screws up, there's nothing you can do. You're learning helplessness inside an absurd Kafka-Beckett collab.

LOL this is the problem with relying on AI tools, as well...

"...His core argument: Tesla is asking humans to supervise a system that is specifically designed to make supervision feel pointless. As he puts it, an unreliable machine keeps you alert, and a perfect machine needs no oversight, but one that works almost perfectly creates a trap where drivers trust it just enough to stop paying attention.

The research backs this up. Psychologists call it the “vigilance decrement”, monitoring a nearly perfect system is boring, boredom leads to mind-wandering, and drivers need 5 to 8 seconds to mentally reengage after an automated system hands control back. But emergencies unfold faster than that...."

• What broad topics belong in the IETF scope?
• Which working groups are already active?
• Enough expertise/people in the IETF for new work?
• What coordination activity would be useful?
• Why are existing processes not enough?
• Would a coordination/discussion group be useful?
• Would similar future meetings be useful?
• If we have another meeting, what should the scope be?

I don't voluntarily use #LLM #AI systems out of principles, though I don't judge anyone for using them.

Still, I keep informed through people using it and people researching their effects. And so far I've seen a pretty massive discrepancy between the favorable impression these tools make on individuals while on aggregate, the value of the output is pretty low. That's why I dub them fooling machines: Even when they aren't intended to manipulate people, the natural language interface still makes a good impression, regardless of the actual quality of the output.

There’s more and more evidence suggesting #LLMs judge dialect speakers – a lot. And in shocking ways.

The Beaverton has found the silver lining:

PALO ALTO, CA – With Silicon Valley boasting that artificial intelligence could replace millions of jobs around the world, currently laid-off workers have reported having more free time to form angry mobs dedicated to storming and torching the homes of the tech billionaires responsible.

The mobs, made up primarily of formerly-employed white collar workers whose livelihoods were erased by poorly-performing AI programs, are using their newfound leisure time to band together with fellow pitchfork-wielding civilians and demand the heads of various pampered CEOs.

“Getting laid off without warning from my copywriting job has done wonders for my work-life-bloodthirsty mob balance,” reports Taylor Grayden, 35, of Vancouver. “Back when I had a job I never would’ve had the free time to organize an unruly rabble and march towards the beach house of (Open AI CEO) Sam Altman. But now I’m getting so much more violent retribution accomplished in a day.”

Members of the quickly-spreading angry hordes include recently-downsized SEO analysts, CPAs, web developers, and programmers.

“I felt so lost after I was let go at my analytics firm so my whole department could be replaced by Claude AI,” explains Sarah Brightwell, 42, of Kingston, ON. “But then I started learning how to use AI as a tool – specifically for planning a multi-week siege of the sprawling compound of Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei.”

“Granted, the attack plans Claude spit out were full of hallucinations, but it got the ball rolling for me to organize my fellow unemployed humans and get marching,” Brightwell adds, tightening the bolts on her homemade trebuchet. “After all, AI can’t throw a molotov cocktail!”

Silicon Valley CEOs like Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Peter Thiel have reported mild growth in AI-fuelled productivity, as well as massive leaps in jobless bourgeoisie rabble surrounding their estates and pounding at the gates with guillotines.

“Sure, we probably could have avoided this if we’d accompanied our artificial intelligence products with any kind of workable universal basic income system,” explains Altman from one of his currently-burning $12.8 million San Francisco homes. “But I’d still rather die with all this money.”

In a related story, employment numbers across Canada and the United States continue to plummet, with the notable exception of the “flaming catapult manufacturer” sector, which grew by 800% last quarter.
