In a recent interview, Alex Karp runs Palantir, a controversial tech firm, steering its growth. He says AI could make a few high‑IQ people very rich, turning them into overnight billionaires, shifting the economic landscape. On July 24, 2026 he called these people "odd IQ shapes you wouldn’t want to have over for dinner", a remark that sparked chatter, that raised eyebrows, a potential danger. Karp says AI could also worsen the gap between the very rich and everyone else, expanding the wealth chasm, even as regulators watch, that seems to be speeding up. He thinks his own fortune might explode 20 times if Palantir’s AI bets pay off, a leap he predicts, acknowledging risks, indicating his bullish stance.
