This video breaks down how Palantir AI (and Palantir Gotham) were used at the 2025 Notting Hill Carnival, where violence dropped compared to previous years and, for the first time in years, no one died.

But is this the start of a Big Brother state? With Peter Thiel’s Palantir powering predictive policing and live facial recognition, the UK may be moving closer to a social credit system like China’s, where we live inside a modern panopticon, policing ourselves under constant surveillance.

We explore:

How Palantir Gotham flagged suspects before Carnival even began (“pre-crime policing”)
Why violent crime rates were lower than in 2024
The dangers of mass surveillance and predictive policing
How AI policing could reshape freedom, privacy, and protest in Britain
