Dario Amodei: If my revenue is not $1 trillion by 2027, Anthropic will go bankrupt.
“I could assume that revenue will continue growing 10x a year.”
“$100 billion at the end of 2026 and $1 trillion at the end of 2027.”
“I could buy a trillion dollars a year of compute.”
“But if my revenue is not a trillion dollars, if it’s even $800 billion, there’s no hedge on earth that could stop me from going bankrupt.”
“If the growth rate is 5x instead of 10x, then you go bankrupt.”

Normies and affected job sectors call this slop.
AI optimists call it the future.
Whichever category you fall into, it's inevitable that this technology will know NO boundaries in any sector within the next 2 to 5 years.
Brace yourself.

Gave Opus 5.5 donald's prompt, Midjourney, and a moodboard
12 hours later, woke up to this:
If you've been wondering why Anthropic's Claude model doesn't generate images like OpenAI's Image and Grok's Imagine, watch the video below.
According to Dario Amodei, safety is the main reason.
"We live in a fast-paced world, and he doesn't want his models to be the reason users get duped or affected, thinking it's a human output or image"

Dario Amodei: critical thinking may become the most important skill in a world where AI can fake almost anything.
“In a world where AI can generate anything and create anything, having basic critical thinking skills may be the most important thing to success.”
“It’s really hard to tell what’s real from what’s not.”
“A significant part of success may be having the street smarts not to get fooled.”
“Critical thinking skills are going to be really important.”
“You don’t want to fall for things that are fake. You don’t want to have false beliefs. You don’t want to get scammed.”

Tristan Harris: I believe some of these AI founders are lying while telling the public the future is bright.
“They’re building bunkers right now.”
“They push away the idea that there’s gonna be all this disruption in the middle.”
“People inside the AI labs told me the arms race between the companies is out of control.”
“AI is the first technology that thinks and makes its own decisions.”
“Speed alone is enough to completely outclass you.”

OpenAI is broke!
They're dealing with a serious compute shortage, which has ultimately resulted in abnormal reaction pop-ups in the ChatGPT/Codex app, coupled with the outage that lasted a few hours yesterday.
Luckily, Anthropic doesn't have this issue. With Elon as the compute backbone of Anthropic, CEO Dario Amodei signed an agreement to use 100% of the compute capacity at the SpaceXAI Colossus 1 facility.
Opus 5.5 isn't getting nerfed, and better models are fast approaching.
Starting with the release of Sonnet 5.5 this week.

OpenAI seems to be dealing with a pretty ugly compute shortage right now, and I’m not saying that just because of these pop-ups. I mean the broader pattern I’ve been watching over the last few hours.
Pro is basically becoming the new Plus, and Plus is becoming the new Free.
At this rate, I can finally start calling Pro users “casual, non-technical users.”

Jensen Huang: “I think we’ve achieved AGI.”
“It is not out of the question that an AI agent could create an app that suddenly a few billion people use.”
“In China, you’re gonna see people getting their agents to look for jobs, do work and make money.”
“People are really worried about their jobs.”
“The purpose of your job and the tools you use to do it are related, not the same.”
“The first job AI researchers said would go away was radiology because computer vision would reach superhuman levels. And it did.”

Claude's weekly limit reset is in!
Seeing Codex fanboys celebrating Tibo initiating a limit reset for them, so why not do mine by with Anthropic's chatbot :)
I'm gonna be trying different stuff with Opus 5.5 and will probably post it all here while having fun.
Crazy how much value you can get from just a $20/$100/$200 monthly plan.

Got ChatGPT Pro earlier this month because of GPT-6 Astra, just for Anthropic to drop a better model in Opus 5.5 two weeks later, and I've abandoned it ever since.
+ no sign of a better model release from OpenAI, which means the sub is gonna expire before I get to use a better model than Astra.

The team at Anthropic found a way to make a comeback no one saw coming
When everything looked like OpenAI took the crown with the release of GPT-6 Astra and would sustain it till the end of the year, Dario and his talented team dropped Opus 5.5 and brought in an extra limit reset that lasts till Oct 22
And they didn't stop there:
- As smart as Fable 5.1 but 40% cheaper
- Now ranked above GPT-6 Astra
- More usage before you hit your limit, 20% more in Claude Code
- Claude Code keeps working even when your laptop is off
- Free credit to try it: $100 for Pro, $250 for Max
- Claude Code now finishes its task properly when you hit your limit
- Sonnet 5.5 and Haiku 5.5 are coming soon (next week?)
what a way to swing the ball in your favour

Sam Altman: whether we burn $500 million, $5 billion, or $50 billion a year, I don’t care.
“As long as we stay on a trajectory where we eventually create way more value for society than that.”
“And as long as we can figure out a way to pay the bills.”
“We’re making AGI.”
“It’s gonna be expensive.”
“It’s totally worth it.”

“It may feel like you have a PhD sitting next to you.”
