UK urged to end contract with US AI-firm Palantir

British lawmakers called Wednesday for the government to end a contract between the country’s National Health Service and AI giant Palantir, warning of an over-reliance on US data providers.

“Palantir’s increasing presence across the public sector represents an unacceptable point of weakness,” the parliamentary Commons Science, Innovation and Technology committee said in a report.

Their conclusions were “not ideologically motivated or driven by concerns about the quality of their products,” it added.
