Is Anthropic actually profitable? @edzitron says that's only when you don't count the costs.

He's made his view clear: AI is a bubble, and it's about to burst.

He joins @EricNewcomer on the Newcomer Podcast, in a new episode out now.

Other than the indignity of being described by an LLM this was a lot of fun!

You know it’s a strange time in the money world when a huge and highly profitable company that’s been buying back its own shares for years suddenly issues $80 billion in new equity — and it’s not even one of the bigger stories of the moment.

That company, of course, is @Google parent Alphabet, which needs more cash for its data center build-out.

"Now @micsolana is using @foundersfund's budget to make something with genuine franchise ambitions — entertainment first, marketing never, or so he says.

But it ends up looking like a TV show. In Silicon Valley, what’s new is old."
