Where are the Palantir autonomous weapons?

Both Israel (https://www.972mag.com/lavender-ai-israeli-army-gaza/) and the US (https://www.theguardian.com/news/2026/mar/26/ai-got-the-blam...) have used the human in the process as either an alibi or to blur the lines as to who's responsible. Clearly none of this has prevented these targeting and attack systems from (being used for) committing war crimes.

And this is the context where they said "no" to the government into pushing this further.

How does this help a evil plan?

They sell to Palantier. Supporting both the mass surveillance and Thiels fascist project.
