Google went public in August 2004, and went up 100x from there. But it started at 23 Billion.
Anthropic and Open AI are starting at 1 Trillion.
The difference is not only the valuation, it's the fact that at least 4 players are competing neck and neck for LLMs.
All of them are losing massive amounts of money. Google, in contrast was highly profitable.
AI is going to change the world. But I am not completely convinced about these AI companies.
In contrast, Bitcoin has no competition, and its cheap. All the money printing in the next decade will make it immensely valuable.
