Palantir: Incubated By The CIA, Now Takes Over The Military
Posted By: David Jeans via Yahoo Finance March 24, 2026
Arguably funded by the CIA in 2003, which was it only client at the time, Palantir is eating everything in sight, including the Military. “Program of Record” locks Maven into the annual Congressional defense budget cycle, guaranteeing structured, predictable, multi-year funding rather than year-to-year renewals. ⁃ Patrick Wood, Editor.
Palantir (PLTR)’s Maven artificial intelligence system will become an official program of record, Deputy Secretary of Defense Steve Feinberg said in a letter to Pentagon leaders, a move that locks in long-term use of Palantir’s weapons-targeting technology across the U.S. military.
In the March 9 letter to senior Pentagon leaders and U.S. military commanders, Feinberg said embedding Palantir’s Maven Smart System would provide warfighters “with the latest tools necessary to detect, deter, and dominate our adversaries in all domains”.
The decision is expected to go into effect by the close of the current fiscal year, which ends in September, according to the letter, which was reviewed by Reuters and has not been previously reported.
