Gary Marcus says he wouldn't be shocked if @AnthropicAI went out of business, and John @Gruber says he'd be surprised if it doesn't (!!) Have they looked at the actual numbers?

Anthropic's revenue went from $41M in 2023 to $386M in 2024 and $4.6B in 2025. It hit $33.2B in just the first 9 months of 2026, up 1,206%. Q3 alone was $17B, vs $1.4B a year earlier. The run rate hit ~$81B at the end of October, up $10B in a single month, and that was after they cut prices about 40%.

Anthropic's S-1 calls it the fastest enterprise adoption of any technology in history. Over 1,900 customers pay them $1M+ a year!

And have they actually used Claude Opus 5.5 or Fable 5.2? Nothing else is close right now.

I have a lot of criticisms of and concerns over Anthropic, but their business is not one of them.

“Traitor to the West” or political overreach? Incoming Texas House Majority Leader Rep. Gene Wu joins “Katie Pavlich Tonight” to weigh in on the backlash against Elon Musk. @KatiePavlich

@Teslaconomics This is my exact configuration .

@ShrimpTeslaLong Bad idea. Tesla doesn’t want or need what Rivian has. It’s the other way around.

Elections have consequences…. But a big ole veto is coming on anything close to this

Video shows a Waymo in San Francisco on I-280 speeding past traffic as the California Highway Patrol performs a traffic break. The Waymo is seen trying to go around the CHP patrol cars, even at one point turning its blinker on. For more information, https://t.co/PuIThxj4vj

@wholemars 😂 What would we do without him? We’d have so much less to laugh at.

@WaitWhat Not sure what you’re talking about

@palumbi1 @elonmusk @Tesla Enjoy that while you can.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

SpaceX has ordered 100 GW/year of HJT solar manufacturing equipment from Singulus in Germany.

This is for Starmind to create a sentient sun.

@ControlsRcw @farzyness @grok Thank you, and thank you for preserving the 69. Feel free to like now that it's 70+. I hope @Farzyness knows I love him despite our many steering wheel debates. I actually met him and his fiancé (at the time) at Giga once, but I doubt he remembers me.

[Griff @griffd]

I don't think he's kidding.

I told my fiancee that Tesla is discontinuing the Cybertruck and her immediate response was “thank God.”

So anyway the wedding is off

@wholemars Classic. One of my favorites. Remember OpenDoc's Cyberdog web browser?

But Cybertruck > Cyberdog 🤣

Silly me. When Jensen Huang said he was extremely impressed with Chinese models, I thought he was talking about A.I.

[UP @UnpluggedTesla]

An open offer to Tesla: We fully support putting Cybercab first, and we’d be glad to take the Cybertruck line off your hands.
We’d fund it with a consortium of investors and run it at no cost to Tesla’s floor space, headcount, or focus. All of that goes to Cybercab. Cybercab gets first call on battery cells too. We’ll wait our turn.
Tesla gains incremental profit: a license fee, plus FSD and Robotaxi network revenues on every vehicle built.
We’d build the Cybertruck, a three-row CyberSUV, and an unmanned CyberCargo hauler. More autonomous miles, across every surface of this planet and beyond.
Worth a conversation?
