    I just want it all to go bust so people stop talking to me about how great their sloppified project is. They can all go cry in a corner when Codex and Claude just aren’t there anymore, and they can’t be arsed to do any work for themselves.

          Yeah no one here is confusing the two. A lot of people however do seem to miss that to investors (of all sectors, not just AI) running at a deficit is not necessarily something to shy away from. Most companies that are expanding extremely fast are run at deficits because building out a company usually costs more than it initially makes. So if you can show high revenue and in particular YoY growth (and they actually do) being at a deficit is not as big of an issue to investors.

    Much bigger deal when you realize they’re talking revenue because there was already zero profits…

    In fact, the word “profit” doesn’t appear at all in this article, or most ones about chat or companies

    They raised $122-123B this year to bring $50 billion revenue, $20B less than expected. Looks like very sustainable business to me. Even if they bring those $68B that’s still 50% burned. Don’t you fucking see it ?

      And it’s all because their models are super under-optimised.

      You’d think otherwise with how capable Opus and Fable are, but it’s just because the internal harness hides the thinking process, resulting in wildly improved output at the cost of 3-5x more compute being burned.

      If they tossed one of the more capable open models in (looking at you, Qwen3.8/Qwen4), those costs would go down a lot.

        Anthropic raised $105B in 2026. $10.9B Q2 revenue. That’s at most $50B revenue per year. It’s still 50% burned. Don’t you fucking see it ?
