Palantir and PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel has been openly speaking about the Antichrist for quite some time. Now, in his four-part lecture series on this end times figure, Thiel reportedly is sharing how AI plays a role into the coming of the Antichrist.
According to The Times, the event, which was held by the Acts 17 Collective, was supposed to be “off the record.” However, one of the guests at the lecture shared his notes before removing them from his personal website. The post was then reported by the San Francisco Standard.

As the San Francisco Standard reported, a tech worker for the Succinct software company published their notes and was then banned from returning to the lecture. Acts 17 Collective executive director Michelle Stephens called out the guest, K Kulkarni on X.
“You are in violation of the clear off the record [policy] we implemented and reiterated many times. Your ticket is revoked without refund,” she wrote.
Kulkarni noted that Thiel discussed how atomic weapons could be part of the way humanity ends up destroying itself. According to Kulkarni, Thiel reportedly said that we are in a time that is “ripe” for the Antichrist to emerge on the global scene, and that he may do so by promising to regulate the rise of AI and technological growth.
Kulkarni also reportedly wrote notes on how the Antichrist gains control of the world. “In late modernity, we finally have the answer: by talking constantly of Armageddon…He rides the wave of apocalyptic anxiety.”
