Peter Thiel praises evil. Peter Thiel hates democracy. Peter Thiel founded Palantir. Peter Thiel owns JD Vance. Peter Thiel is the most powerful billionaire in the United States. Peter Thiel can’t stop talking about the “Antichrist.” Find out why. Read “The Nerd Reich”
Perfect with photos of teal and Judy Vance. Quote from Peter Teal if you’re evil, you’re actually kind of good because at least you’re getting something done.

For today’s @ftweekend.com I am at the restaurant inside the high end Mayfair furniture shop RH London. And it’s chaos. Warm water. Can’t mix cocktails. Run out of hamburgers. Dull food for bored oligarchs who don’t eat. Have a few quotes and a pic of a £22 baked potato. www.ft.com/content/5993...
Drift through its rooms admiring the oversized sculptures, the overstuffed seating and the passive-aggressive war on colour. I was tempted to give myself a quick nosebleed just to introduce a splash of red. While there, do take a look inside the utterly magnificent restaurant at the back of the ground floor, housed in what was once a banking hall. The cathedral-high ceilings are coated in gold leaf and dangle with giant golden chandeliers like crystal udders. There are pillars, acres of polished wood veneer and lots of soft curved seating, picked out by pools of light from dainty table lamps. Gawp at it. Gasp at it. But whatever you do, don’t book a table in it. On my recent visit, the whole operation was a bloody shambles.It starts in the second-floor cocktail bar, designed by Anouska Hempel, where the £16 Margarita comes from a bottle of pre-mix with a hand-scribbled label, and they can’t make any classic cocktails which aren’t on the list. Ask them for a Daiquiri then watch the panic flicker in their eyes. Online, the cheapest bottle of wine offered up here is a Riesling at £68. When you arrive, it turns out to be £86.Back downstairs in the restaurant a bottle of sparkling water is brought. It’s warm. We ask for ice. None comes. We ask again. None comes. Third time’s a charm. At least we get water quickly; the wait for food is interminable (if you don’t count the £56-worth of mini lobster rolls we didn’t order, that they tried to foist on us). We watch one of our dishes being offered to a nearby table. The diners look baffled. The waiter returns to the pass in the open kitchen where a row with the chef appears to ensue. He waves a ticket at her. Finally, 10 minutes later the plate comes to us. In a functioning restaurant you should be able to spot the person in charge immediately. There is no one in charge of this room. It’s chaos.Our missing dish is the cutely named “Parisian petite potato”. I wanted to see what a £22 baked potato was like. Small, is the answer, and topped with the now obligatory caviar. Honestly, there’s so much caviar washing around London at the moment, I’m convinced there’s some bloke with a lock-up in Camberwell who has got hold of a surplus that fell off the back of a knackered old sturgeon. Now he’s pushing it out to W1. Anyway, it’s a baked potato with fish eggs. I’m not sure which bit of it is Parisian but it’s definitely petite, I’ll give it that.

"Une élite sociopathe est en train de réinventer la société.""Giuliano da Empoli décrit la prise de pouvoir d’une nouvelle élite, celle des 'seigneurs de la tech', et la 'bascule militaire' de la 'culture de la start-up'". "Un thriller orwellien ultra-contemporain"
 Mais comment « investir ces sujets » ? Face à l’IA par exemple ?

C’est une bataille gigantesque. Il s’agit d’opposer un contre-pouvoir à des « fondateurs » qui sont en train de restructurer complètement notre sphère publique, nos sociétés. Les modèles d’IA sont l’exemple le plus évident. Mais le sujet de mon roman, c’est la bascule militaire de la tech : comment la gentille culture de la start-up, avec des jeunes gens en sweat à capuche, pivote pour s’appliquer à la guerre, au renseignement, à tout ce qui touche à la frontière ultime de la souveraineté des Etats. Comment la machine de surveillance devient une machine de mort… Parce que être détecté, c’est être ciblé, on le voit aujourd’hui sur les théâtres de guerre, à Gaza. On presse un bouton, et la surveillance devient un drone qui vient vous tuer.
Vous consacrez plusieurs pages à la guerre en Ukraine…

Oui, et le logiciel Maven, développé par Palantir, fonctionne exactement comme je le décris, avec cette fluidité recherchée dans ce qu’ils appellent la kill chain. Le personnage le plus terrifiant du roman est calqué sur Palmer Luckey, le cofondateur d’Anduril, que j’ai croisé aussi, qui applique cette attitude californienne de startupper à l’industrie de la défense. C’est-à-dire qu’au lieu de concevoir un réseau social, il produit des machines de mort, des essaims de drones, des sous-marins autonomes. Toujours avec cet esprit : « On va essayer un truc, on va s’éclater, on “move fast and break things” [“on avance vite et on casse des choses”, ancienne devise interne de Facebook]. » On ne se rend pas compte de ce qui est en train de se produire.
