7:52Now PlayingAI is shrinking the military “kill chain” from days or weeks to milliseconds. Using the 2026 US war against Iran as a case study, this episode examines how Palantir’s Maven Smart System and technology from Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, Amazon and other Silicon Valley companies are being integrated into military intelligence, targeting and strike planning.
It also investigates the dangers of automated warfare, including how outdated targeting data can lead to catastrophic mistakes, how Israel has used AI systems such as Lavender and Project Nimbus in Gaza, and how Iran is using American AI tools to strengthen its own capabilities. As Big Tech moves deeper into defense, one question becomes impossible to ignore: who decides who gets targeted, who profits and what happens when humans are removed from the process?
