Palmer Luckey<\/a>, the founder of Anduril<\/a>, the defense tech giant that makes weapons and military products, announced that it could produce American-made computers at the Reindustrialize Summit, a conference about modernizing American manufacturing, in Detroit on Thursday.<\/p>\n

“This is one of those things where I started talking to companies years ago about this,” Luckey said. “I think there’s a chance that it’s going to be Anduril.”<\/p>\n

Luckey added that Anduril has held conversations with “everyone you would need to have to do that,” including people “on the chip side, on the assembly side, on the manufacturing side.”<\/p>\n

Anduril doesn’t yet make computers, and Luckey isn’t completely sold on the effort. He told the crowd: “There are some things Anduril has to do,” he said. “There are other things we’d rather have other people do. This is something I’d rather have other people do.”<\/p>\n

American-made computers aren’t a novel concept. PC-maker Dell<\/a> had several manufacturing plants throughout the US, but in 2009, it closed its North Carolina plant and announced a change to its international manufacturing partner, moving from Ireland to Poland.<\/p>\n

Luckey, who addressed the crowd virtually and with a humanoid robot from Foundation, also added that Anduril will not build its own humanoid robot: “We’re going to partner with other companies where it makes sense,” he said.<\/p>\n

Anduril, which was cofounded by Luckey in 2017, makes hardware for the US military, including drones and underwater submersibles, and an AI-powered software platform, Lattice. The company is also working on extended reality headsets and other wearables for the military<\/a> in a partnership with Meta, which the companies announced in May.<\/p>\n

Luckey declined to share what he would name the computer if he were to make it, but hinted that “it’s pro-American, and also a gambling reference, but I’ll leave it at that.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Palmer Luckey, the founder of Anduril, the defense tech giant that makes weapons and military products, announced that…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17199,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[16143,16148,16151,16152,16146,16145,191,15456,16150,1923,16144,16147,3590,16149,74,16153,25],"class_list":{"0":"post-17198","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-computing","8":"tag-anduril","9":"tag-anduril-founder-palmer-luckey","10":"tag-anduril-teases-american-made-computer","11":"tag-assembly-side","12":"tag-company-year","13":"tag-computer","14":"tag-computing","15":"tag-crowd","16":"tag-humanoid-robot","17":"tag-ireland","18":"tag-luckey","19":"tag-military-product","20":"tag-people","21":"tag-reindustrialize-summit","22":"tag-technology","23":"tag-thing","24":"tag-us"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17198","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17198"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17198\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17199"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17198"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17198"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17198"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
