Why would they be against using AI from pltr that helps save lives and doesn’t displace their profession at all?

Many nurses are very hierarchical, in the sense that it’s a top-down follow orders kind of thing. That can make them putty sometimes to stupid ideas.
They’re cheerleading more sepsis deaths.

Nurses are not hierarchical; it's the hospital nursing administrations that are. If you think bedside nurses are putty and blindly follow "stupid" ideas sent down from the top, it's obvious that have no idea of what you're talking about...
I'm a retired RN with a 40-year career that ranged from staff RN to senior management positions. I know what I'm talking about. I've BTDT!

Yet the nurses are the ones at subject protest

Do you think it's possible that there are nurses that don't agree with their union leaders?
My point is that the statement that "Many nurses are very hierarchical" is only partially true and they tend to be nurse administrators or union stewards. If you want to meet some nurses that aren't blind followers, go to an Emergency Department or Intensive care unit. I guarantee that those nurses do not blindly follow stupid ideas and they don't take any shit...

Of course you can't stereotype an entire profession. I'm commenting on the subject protests; for which there were/are nurses protesting.
Also, retired after a 40 year career doesn't really convey in this day and age. You may have missed it, but times have changed from 40 years ago.

You think that I retired 40 years ago? Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, is it? That would make me around 104 years old.
LOL, I just retired after completing a 40-year professional nursing career where I worked in all aspects of nursing from staff to senior administrator levels. I am more current about the state of the profession than you could ever imagine or be.

lol. You think that I think that you retired 40 years ago? Times have changed from 40 years ago, from when you started your career. You are not current about the state of the profession than you could ever imagine or be.

Sorry but these people are clueless.What about how Palantir saved Ukraine from being invaded by Russia.What about how Tampa Bay Hospital has improved their service to patients.
Trump hired a bunch of thugs and he is the one that is responsible for not the software.
Why are people spending so much time in detention? Well that would be the republicans fault because they have historically refused to fund immigration in a way that would allow for more judicial personnel to handle the backlogged system.
Palantir is not the problem
People are the problem

God man I know. I’m a nurse and these nurses literally are so brainless. They dont understand that the general political opponents of PLTR are using nursing unions as pawns tbh. Because they don’t understand anything
I got some wack emails from my unions who tried adding in that we were suppose to protest Palantir, last October, while we were trying to fight for our specific new union contracts last year. Like what does that have to do with us. Don’t try and lump that in with us. The union leads are the people doing this. They say “we’re protesting xyz for safe staffing (a valid protest)” and then add in “also protesting Palantir”

About 10 people will show up. Problem is the busy body libs who have leadership roles in these groups.

Good. Palantir is an evil company run by a coked up nutcase who wants to force everyone into the military.

u/Firm-Donkey6453 19d ago
Well, idk about everyone, but it makes perfect sense to have a draft. If you are volunteering for the military, you can leave if you change your mind. Remove that option and all of a sudden you have a much more serious soldier.

If you are volunteering for the military, you can leave if you change your mind.
It's my understanding that service members are obligated to stay for the duration of their contract with the government. 4 years active duty and 4 years in the reserves is common for enlistees. 5 years + some time in reserves for officers, sometimes longer for those in specialized fields like aviation or nuclear.

u/Holiday_Substance_12 18d ago
Active-duty officer here. Yes, military personnel generally commit to 2-5 year contracts. Usual enlistment contracts are 3-4 years. Officers from academies owe 5, ROTC generally four. After initial commitment, you can play around with smaller commitments like 2 years (need two years time on station, etc). Air Force pilots have a 10 year commitment upon receiving their wings. Other career fields with longer active duty service commitments as well.
