Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR): Ahead of the Curve in AI

In mid September 2025, Alexandr Wang, the billionaire founder of Scale AI and the Chief AI Officer of tech giant Meta, appeared on tech podcast TBPN and said that teens dreaming of lucrative tech careers should seize on the opportunity to hone their artificial intelligence skills by immersing themselves in the growing number of AI-powered code generation tools. Wang compared the current moment of rapid technological advancement to the early days of the computer revolution, when people like the Bill Gates of the world capitalized on being early adopters of computers and software. That moment is happening right now — and if you are, like, 13 years old, you should spend all of your time vibe coding, he advised.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR), a publicly traded company that specializes in software platforms for big data analytics, has taken this advice to heart. The firm has become one of the biggest success stories of the AI boom by integrating AI into a suite of software products designed for government and commercial purposes. Last month, the firm announced that it had entered a partnership with the UK government that would see an investment of up to £1.5 billion in the UK to deliver new jobs, growth and national security.
