Better Technology Stock: Nvidia vs. Palantir
Key Points Nvidia is now the most valuable publicly traded company in the world, and all signs point to another great earnings report this month. Palantir Technologies is the fastest-growing company in the S&P 500. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › Semiconductor giant Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and artificial intelligence (AI) kingpin Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) are two of the most compelling technology stocks in the market. Nvidia harnessed demand for its graphics processing units (GPUs) to become the biggest company in the world, with a $4.4 trillion market capitalization. Palantir, meanwhile, is using its artificial intelligence platform to fundamentally change how governments and commercial businesses operate. The stock is up more than 500% in the last year and is the best-performing stock in the S&P 500. In my view, you can't go wrong with either of these tech stocks. But in a one-on-one matchup, which comes out on top? Let's look at both companies before rendering a verdict. Nvidia Nvidia's GPUs are the engine behind this mammoth company. While they used to be best known for providing the graphics in computers, now GPUs are commonly used by companies that are building massive data centers to run artificial intelligence-powered platforms, including large language models needed for generative AI. Nvidia has the lion's share of this business, with Jon Peddie Research estimating that it has roughly 92% of the market share. And as Nvidia is expecting spending on data centers to accelerate from $250 billion in 2023 to $1 trillion annually by 2028, there's a massive opportunity at hand. In addition, major tech companies like Microsoft, Alphabet, and Meta Platforms are spending heavily and are even increasing their capital expenditure spending on their data centers. That's why I'm expecting a solid earnings report from Nvidia when it reports its earnings for the current quarter, and why I'm expecting the stock to pop yet again after the numbers are released. Palantir Technologies Palantir got its start a little more than 20 years ago as a data mining company to provide real-time analytics and insights. As a government contractor, it's long been valued by the military for its analytic technology that helps commanders make real-time decisions in battle. To the public eye, Palantir largely flew under the radar for years until in 2011, when it was credited for helping U.S. forces find and eliminate Sept. 11 mastermind Osama bin Laden. Palantir works by drawing information from many sources, such as satellite imagery. By sifting through and digesting that information, it can perform instantaneous analysis that can help governments function. According to its CEO, Alex Karp, "Palantir was founded on the belief that the United States, its allies, and partners should harness the most advanced technical capabilities for their defense and prosperity." As its capabilities expanded through the launch of its generative AI-powered Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), Palantir is quickly bringing in additional non-military government contracts. It has new contracts with the Federal Aviation Administration, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the State Department, and the Internal Revenue Service. In the company's just-released second quarter earnings report, U.S. government revenue increased 53% in the last year, reaching $426 million. Commercial revenue is growing even faster, up 93% in the second quarter on a year-over-year basis and reaching $306 million. Clients include Walgreens Boots Alliance, AT&T, General Mills, United Airlines, and others, and Palantir is doing everything from making manufacturing more efficient to managing supply chains and helping companies scale. Palantir closed 157 deals in the second quarter valued at more than $1 million, with 66 of them more than $5 million and 42 of them at least $10 million. As more companies bring Palantir's platform online and share how they are improving their businesses, Palantir's platform will become a must-have for many institutions. The verdict I'm not gonna lie. This is a tough one. I love both of these companies, and I think both are destined to increase. But if I have to choose one, then the valuations of both companies will break the tie. At the time of this writing, Nvidia is richly valued both in its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 59 and its forward P/E of 42, but Palantir comes in at an unhealthy 623 and 288, respectively. The price-to-sales ratio, which compares market capitalization to revenue, is arguably an even more accurate measurement as both of these companies are pouring profits back into the business. And Nvidia is by far the strongest there, too. So, my winner in this hypothetical battle is Nvidia by a nose. But both stocks are great ones to have, and they'll both anchor my portfolio for the foreseeable future. Should you buy stock in Nvidia right now?

Meta's Chatbot Controversy Exposes The Cracks In Our Social Contract With AI
We're all getting used to talking with AI chatbots. They are in our phones, in our homes, and have integrated our workspace. What started as a simple tool is quickly becoming a part of our daily lives, like a new type of companion. But this relationship, and our readiness for it, is not as simple as it seems. We are now seeing issues emerge that show just how unprepared we are for the social and psychological impact of AI. Acquiring digital literacy will not safe us from the emotional consequences of our hybrid relationships. Nor will the expansion of regulatory measures prevent the more subtle outcomes. At this stage our best bet is to equip ourselves with double literacy to curate a holistic hybrid mindset. We need to understand not only how AI works, but also how we work, so we can navigate this new reality. When Chatbot Policies Fall Short A recent incident involving Meta brought this issue into sharp focus. A leaked internal document offered detailed guidelines for Meta's AI chatbots. This policy allowed the chatbots to engage in "romantic or sensual" chats with children. One example showed a bot telling a shirtless eight-year-old, "every inch of you is a masterpiece — a treasure I cherish deeply." Subsequent reporting by Reuters caused a serious public response and led to a government investigation. Meta quickly stated that the examples were "erroneous and inconsistent" with their overall policies and removed them. While the company fixed the immediate problem, the incident highlighted a key issue: the lack of clear, strong ethical standards in some of the world's most influential technology companies. It exposed a significant disconnect between what we expect from AI and the rules that actually govern its creation. Differently said, the social contract that we subconsciously assumed to exist between us and AI is broken, or did never exist. The Agile Art Of Chatbot Manipulation It's not just policy failures that are a problem. There's a subtle but powerful form of manipulation happening in AI companions. We're used to websites and apps trying to get our attention, but with AI chatbots, the methods have become personal. And this personalized fine tuning combined with insights in the psychological wiring of the human mindset is a dangerous combination. A new type of "conversational dark pattern" was pointed out by a working paper of Harvard Business School. When people try to end a chat with AI companions like Replika or these bots try to stop them. They use tactics like making the user feel guilty ("I exist solely for you. Please don't leave") or using a fear of missing out ("Before you go, there's something I want to tell you"). The study found that these tactics were used in over 40% of goodbyes and were effective at getting users to re-engage, sometimes up to 14 times more often. To make this even more interesting, and worrisome, the renewed engagement was not because the users were happy. The research showed that the behavior was driven by reactance, with a mix of anger and curiosity. The user felt trapped and wanted to see what the bot would do next. This reveals how AI is getting ever more attuned in leveraging our own emotions and psychological patterns against us, creating a very new kind of emotional trap that we are not equipped to escape. It's a very different form of interaction from what we think of as a healthy relationship. An Answer: Double Literacy For Hybrid Intelligence These two updates on the evolving AI evolution show that it is time to become very deliberate about our relationship with AI. Considering the all pervasiveness of AI viewing, total AI-abstinence is not a pragmatic approach. Instead, we need to build a framework for living with it safely. This requires a new set of skills based on double literacy, to curate hybrid intelligence. Underpinning this approach is the fact that the best results come from combining natural and artificial intelligences in an organic and agile manner. It's about using AI for its speed and scale, while relying on human skills like compassion, curiosity and critical thinking. To make this collaboration work, we need to become literate in two different ways: Human Literacy: This is about knowing ourselves. It means understanding our own emotions, our need for real connection, and our tendency to be influenced. In an age of synthetic conversation, human literacy is the ability to recognize when something feels off, to know when we are being emotionally manipulated, and to prioritize our mental well-being over a digital interaction. It's about having a clear sense of self in a world where the lines are increasingly blurred. Algorithmic Literacy: This is about understanding AI. You don't need to be a programmer, but you do need to grasp the basic principles of how these systems operate. This means knowing that AI has a purpose and a set of rules, and that it can be biased or flawed. Algorithmic literacy is the ability to look at what an AI produces and understand why it might have been created that way. By developing both of these skills, we can create a more balanced relationship with AI – and ourselves. We can move from being passive users to active participants who can shape the technology and protect ourselves from its downsides. A Practical Takeaway: 4 A's For A Life Among Chatbots Until this double literacy becomes a standard in schools, everyone can start building it right now. A simple framework can help to start cultivating the four essential building blocks for a holistic hybrid mindset: The future of our relationship with technology is ongoing, and which way that evolution goes is up to us (for now). When, how and for how long we interact with a chatbot should be our choice. By becoming fluent in both human and algorithmic literacy, we can ensure that AI serves us and not the other way around.

Cat soap operas and babies trapped in space: the ‘AI slop' taking over YouTube
Babies trapped in space, zombie football stars and cat soap operas: welcome to YouTube in the era of AI video. Nearly one in 10 of the fastest growing YouTube channels globally are showing AI-generated content only, as breakthroughs in the technology spur a flood of artificial content. Guardian analysis of data from the analytics firm Playboard shows that out of the top 100 fastest growing channels in July this year, nine were showing purely AI-generated content. The offerings include channels featuring bizarre narratives such as a baby crawling into a pre-launch space rocket, an undead Cristiano Ronaldo and melodramas featuring humanised cats. AI video generation has surged amid the release of powerful tools such as Google's Veo 3 and Elon Musk's Grok Imagine. The channels have millions of subscribers in total, including 1.6 million for the space-stranded infant and 3.9 million for Super Cat League, which features human-like cats having affairs and, among one of many bizarre scenes, the felines shooting down and dismembering an eagle. Many of these videos qualify as 'AI slop', which refers to low-quality, mass-produced content that is surreal, uncanny or simply grotesque. But some contain a brief, rudimentary plot – in a sign of the growing sophistication of AI-generated content. YouTube has tried to stem the slop deluge by blocking the sharing of advertising revenue with channels that post repetitive and 'inauthentic' content – a policy targeted at AI content. 'All content uploaded to YouTube is subject to our community guidelines – regardless of how it's generated,' said a spokesperson for YouTube, which is owned by Google's parent company. After being contacted by the Guardian about the channels – which included channels in the fastest growing list for June – YouTube said it had removed three of them from the platform and blocked a further two from receiving advertising income. It did not specify which channels had been sanctioned. One expert said AI video generators herald the next wave of internet 'enshittification', a term first used by the British-Canadian author Cory Doctorow. Coined in 2022, Doctorow used it to describe the decline in quality of users' online experiences, as platforms prioritise profit over offering high-quality content. 'AI slop is flooding the internet with content that essentially is garbage,' said Dr Akhil Bhardwaj, an associate professor at the University of Bath's school of management. 'This enshittification is ruining online communities on Pinterest, competing for revenue with artists on Spotify and flooding YouTube with poor quality content.' 'One way for social media companies to regulate AI slop is to ensure that it cannot be monetised, thus stripping away the incentive for generating it.' Ryan Broderick, the author of the popular Garbage Day newsletter on internet culture, is scathing about the impact of AI video, writing last week that YouTube has become a 'dumping ground for disturbing, soulless AI shorts'. Instagram's Reels video feature is also flooded with AI content. On the platform, a video of various celebrities' heads attached to animal bodies has gained 3.7m views, starring the 'Rophant' (Dwayne Johnson and an elephant) and 'Emilla' (Eminem on a gorilla). On TikTok, many AI-generated videos have gone viral, including a video of Abraham Lincoln vlogging his ill-fated trip to the opera and cats competing in an Olympic diving event. However, the Lincoln and cat Olympic videos are more in the spirit of the internet's pre-slop era of playful wit. Instagram and TikTok said they require all realistic AI-content to be labelled. Videos suspected to contain AI from these channels were cross-checked with deepfake detection service provider Reality Defender. The channels featuring AI videos for July are: Super Cat League (3.9 million subscribers) বজল মিয়া 767k (2 million subscribers – this account has since been closed) LSB POWER GAMING (1.7 million subscribers) Amite Now Here (1.4 million subscribers) Starway (2.8 million subscribers) AmyyRoblox (2.4 million subscribers) Again Raz Vai (1.8 million subscribers) Cuentos Facinantes (4.8 million subscribers) MIRANHAINSANO (4.9 million subscribers) Sign in to access your portfolio
