*run-rate revenue

Without more information, this number is impossible to interpret.


This has become a meme which is way out over its skis. Yes, run-rate is not the complete story, but "impossible to interpret" is way overstating the case.

No, it's not. We do not know how Anthropic calculates it, or even if they calculate each number they report identically, hence the number is impossible to interpret.

Unless you have access to Anthropics book your claim is as baseless as Ed Zitron's ...

With all that revenue, while being the most expensive model, they are still unprofitable without trickery.

This really doesn't paint the good picture you seem to imply.


What do they then need another $65B for? To sell 200$ plans that cost them 1000$ to fullfill.

I can have $47B in revenue if I sell something that cost $80B to produce ez pz.


Revenue is not profit.
