All Too Human with Kala Hampton

War Clouds: Silicon Valley’s Biggest Lie (“Screw Amazon!”)

Kala Hampton Season 1 Episode 44

What do Sam Altman’s shrug, Elon Musk’s subsidies, and Microsoft’s Pentagon cloud deal all have in common? They’re not about “innovation.” They’re about war.

In this episode of All Too Human, we pull back the curtain on the new Military–AI Complex: Silicon Valley playing innocent while cashing government checks. From OpenAI’s $200 million Pentagon contract to Musk’s rocket deals, and from Trump’s grudge-driven “Screw Amazon!” moment to Microsoft’s rise as the Pentagon’s digital backbone—this isn’t about hypothetical futures. The war cloud is here. It’s signed, sealed, and deployed.

The biggest lie? That tech is neutral. The truth: war has always been America’s oldest business model, and now Silicon Valley is just its newest supplier.
