Nvidia and Palantir team up to run supply chains with AI, starting with Nvidia's own million-part operation

Nvidia and Palantir integrated open Nemotron models and cuOpt into Foundry to run AI-driven supply chains, starting with Nvidia's million-part operation.

Nvidia and Palantir announced a partnership to run supply chains with AI, first deployed on Nvidia's own network of millions of parts and thousands of suppliers; a single Vera Rubin rack contains 1.3 million components. Palantir is integrating open Nemotron models into its Foundry platform for customer fine-tuning, while Nvidia cuOpt handles scenario planning and optimization, with decisions fed back to improve models over time. The stack runs on customer hardware or in the cloud through the Sovereign AI OS reference architecture with infrastructure partners Dell, Cisco, Rackspace, and Nebius, with more details shown at AIPCon 11.

ICE to Pay LexisNexis Millions for Data to Feed to Palantir

ICE will pay LexisNexis millions more dollars for continued data access feeding Palantir's ELITE platform used by Enforcement and Removal Operations.

Newly published procurement records show ICE plans to pay LexisNexis millions more dollars for continued access to data that feeds Palantir's ELITE platform. The system helps ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations identify which neighborhoods to target by combining data from private suppliers and government agencies. The news comes as ICE arrested more than 51,000 people in July, many of them at airports.

The Rise of the Forward Deployed Engineer — and How To Do the Job Right

Palantir veteran Vinoo Ganesh traces the forward deployed engineer role and shares practices for building effective FDE teams.

Kepler CEO and former Palantir forward deployed engineer Vinoo Ganesh argues that labs, startups, and PE firms hire FDEs without a shared definition of the role. He recounts Palantir's Project Frontline rotation, which trained about 250 software engineers as FDEs, many now leading forward deployed teams at OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, and Anduril. A 2013 failure of the Phoenix transaction store at a bank, where real-world data gaps caused roughly 2.3 million keyspaces and an out-of-memory crash, illustrates why FDEs must own the gap between design and production reality. At Kepler he places the FDE function inside product rather than sales.

AI labs have a data trust problem that their policies haven't solved

Nvidia, Palantir, and Booz Allen restrict Anthropic's Fable over data-retention distrust, exposing gaps in AI labs' customer data policies.

Nvidia limits Anthropic's Fable to non-sensitive work and runs its own Nemotron models for internal tasks, while Palantir blocks Fable deployment until Anthropic grants irrevocable zero-data-retention guarantees, and Booz Allen bans it for proprietary cybersecurity work. John Schulman and researcher Sarah Hooker explain that labs can still extract customer IP from metadata, user traces, and synthetic data even under zero data retention. The trust crisis crystallized around Tristan Buckmaster's accusation that OpenAI's Codex absorbed his Navier-Stokes drafts, though OpenAI later stated his prompts could not have influenced its model.

HelmGuard Raises $7.3 Million for Agentic GRC and Security

Agentic GRC and security startup HelmGuard raised a $7.3 million seed round co-led by Infinity Ventures and Frontline.

HelmGuard, a UK-based startup founded in 2024 by former Palantir executive John Daley (CEO) and Jack Miller (CTO), announced a $7.3 million seed round co-led by Infinity Ventures and Frontline, with participation from FinTech Collective, Stage 2 Capital, and Entrepreneurs First. The company builds agentic governance, risk and compliance (GRC) software that collects risk signals directly from integrated source systems and uses AI agents to automate risk management, assurance, and control gap assessments. It claims the platform cuts assessment cycles to hours by unifying fragmented compliance and security data.

Lawmakers call for investigation into impact of CISA staffing cuts

Democratic lawmakers asked the GAO to investigate how CISA's roughly one-third workforce reduction affects its mission and critical-infrastructure protection.

Democratic lawmakers led by House Homeland Security ranking member Bennie Thompson asked the Government Accountability Office to examine how recent staffing cuts at CISA affect its ability to protect critical infrastructure and respond to cyber and physical threats. Nearly 1,000 CISA employees have been fired or quit since the Trump administration began, and acting director Nick Andersen plans to hire 300. The letter also flags the FY2027 budget proposal to eliminate nearly 900 additional positions and cut more than $700 million from the agency. CISA has had no confirmed director since Jen Easterly departed, and GAO confirmed it received the request.
