Billionaire technology Peter Thiel warned that AI company Anthropic could use its technological advantage to influence the 2028 presidential election in favor of Democrats.

Speaking at the Aspen Ideas Festival, Thiel suggested that Anthropic, which he described as a “woke liberal company,” was “winning the AI race” and could use its advanced AI models to “rig the elections in 2028.”

Thiel, who co-founded both PayPal and Palantir, argued he company would be able to “completely outwit” any efforts by Elon Musk to counter it through X because of the power of its technology.

Anthropic has declined to comment, referring reporters to a previous blog post on election integrity and political bias.

The company has clashed with the Trump administration, which has even designated it a “supply chain risk” because of the restrictions it wants to place on military programs.

CEO Dario Amodei is known for his left-wing views and has likened President Trump to a “feudal warlord.”

The billionaire also warned that the Democratic Party is moving toward a socialist takeover following a string of victories by democratic socialist candidates.

“I think there’s going to be a democratic-socialist takeover of the Democratic Party,” Thiel said.

“The Republican Party doesn’t matter that much. It’s the less important one. When the Democratic Party goes, this country is over.”

Thiel also criticized Pope Leo XIV’s calls for greater international regulation of artificial intelligence, arguing such policies would slow American innovation while doing little to restrain China.

He said the pope was effectively “working for the Chinese Communists.”

Thiel also rejected claims that Palantir operates as part of the federal government’s so-called “deep state,” describing the company’s leadership as “loyal-dissident-type people.”

He added that neither he nor Palantir CEO Alex Karp holds a government security clearance.

Back in May, it was reported that Thiel, who has a net worth of around $25 billion, had moved his family to Argentina amid growing concern about the “long-term direction” of America.

While Thiel has not spoken publicly about the move, he is said to have purchased a sprawling mansion in Buenos Aires and enrolled his children in local schools.
