Revenue for AI companies has more than tripled in the past year.
Anthropic + OpenAI alone are almost half of that, $65bn and $40bn respectively.
To put that in perspective Caterpillar, Eli Lilly, Morgan Stanley and IBM all generate around $70bn a year in revenue.
Ally recently caught up with Vihari Ross, a portfolio manager at Antipodes, for her tips on how to navigate what appears to be an increasingly frothy market.
If AI is coming for our jobs - it hasn’t arrived yet.
Last week we got the August job numbers - the US economy added 162,000 jobs. 3x what economists were predicting.
In 2026, the US has added an average of 80,000 jobs a month, up from an average of 10,000 a month last year.
The jobs apocalypse is postponed. An AI jobs boom is here
According to @TheEconomist, AI is actually proving to be a net job creator in the US, easily generating over 1M new positions (from data center construction to AI engineering) to offset back-office layoffs.
While routine admin and customer service roles face real disruption, the overall labor market is proving resilient.

Fascinating chart of how each $100 invested in data centres flows.

See why and read a couple of stories that caught Ren's eye.
2000 was a valuation bubble.
2026 is an earnings bubble.
While the internet promised profits in the future and measured value by web traffic, this AI boom is seeing real profits.
The question is how sustainable are these profits when Big Tech slows down building data centres?
Nvidia Q2 results:
- Revenue of $96.2bn, up 106% yoy
- Data centre revenue of $89bn, up 117% yoy
- Profit of $59.7bn, up 126% yoy
As long as Big Tech keep investing hundreds of billions into data centres, Nvidia will keep putting up incredible results.
Each year, the US National Safety Council calculates the lifetime odds of dying doing different activities.
In 2024, the lifetime risk of dying in a car accident was 1 in 101.
The risk of dying in a plane crash was too small to calculate.
