    There is no evidence that Anthropic's revenue is 70B.

    Oh, come on. He's not perfect, but compared to CEOs and researchers predicting AGI and complete economic upheaval every 3 months, he's looking very good. He's no more a charlatan t…

    I largely agree but I don't know if it's quite so clear cut. From the pricing angle, all competitors except Google, including Chinese models, have incentive to gain market share at…

    95% of SpaceX's valuation is in AI.

    I think they're concentrating on users and not benchmarks. Gemini is still the best model at plain old searches, like, for parsing images or "what's that poem with this and this in…

    Is that surprising? It is standard "embrace, extend, extinguish" from a company not in a strong enough position to do the third one.

    DeepMind did release a math specific model. And OpenAI has released a coding specific model. The answer to your question is “because the market isn’t big enough”, not because it do…

    Because it's an important aid to getting to a high-paying job in the US, not just a means to learn. One need only look at the resume filtering process, a once manual bias that has …

    So? It’ll never pay dividends..

    That’s absurd. Why couldn’t it still fail, especially when their last raise was at 20x revenue or more? These numbers are horrendous.

    Sam Altman is not one of those people. But other founders certainly felt that way.

    Anthropic's S-1 is not public yet

    Anthropic talks to the Pope and hires ethicists and philosophers. All founders have pledged to donate 80% of their wealth. They have pledged to never use ad tech because of misalig…

    Stargate is not real. It is not clear that running one's own datacenter is a competitive advantage. Why do you think OpenAI can handle that?

    Many people worked for FTX, loved SBF and would have said he was a great leader too. People will love anyone who is good to them.

    This is common rhetoric that feels overly reductionist and makes me sad. Sam got fired and his response was to manipulate and pressure his employees into a shameful, cult-like lett…

    I assume you're trolling, but in case otherwise: The reason media training exists is to win over people like you. I know people high up at OpenAI, I'm quite sure Altman etc. don't …

    You prefer Altman -- someone who will lie and cheat and backstab and work on autonomous military drones and video generators and adult chatbots, give his entire life and being, in …

    Mine as well. I pay for Gemini and Claude but prefer Gemini. I don't understand the hate Gemini gets on this site. It is quite well-rounded, it is often better at tasks without ben…

    I agree, but I'm taking as an axiom that some amount of bribery (tribute, really) had to be done, that Apple could avoid massive government retribution. In that lens, this bribery,…

    It's fair to say there is not much contrast. But he's kept Apple's DEI and climate commitments in place even after being attacked directly, while Zuckerberg, Musk and Altman are pr…

    I admire how Tim Cook participates in US politics. He is doing the most while giving the least. I would do the same in his position, he is making the best of a difficult situation,…

    People got attached to ELIZA. Why would I care what the general public thinks?

    I think of how trading firms cannot say their strategies, as they would lose their effectiveness. Or how many people know that many CEOs and leaders are idiots, but cannot say it, …
