hungryhobbit5 minutes ago | next[–] >There's an important distinction here. Anthropic isn't actually spending more cash on AI than salaries. It's valuing its internal AI consumption at retail prices. If virtually any other company in the world said "we have internal AI servers and we let our employees use them" ... the company would measure that as they would any other internal expenditure: by how much it costs them. You blow $50k a year on servers running your LLMs? It cost you $50k. Only a company like Anthropic, desperate to make news and help their IPO, would measure by the cost they charge customers. It's as ridiculous as Microsoft counting every employee's use of MS Word ... as if it had paid the full consumer price of each copy. reply
blobbers2 minutes ago | parent | next[–] Do they actually book the revenue against themselves? This is the world of spend more, get valued more; obviously the investment will be used to spend more and get more, so it must be good. This is investor-think. If you don't have spend, why do you need investment? (Or it could be bad. Very very bad) reply
Palomides0 minutes ago | prev | next[–] everyone who said "why aren't AI companies replacing their employees with AI?" should be rethinking their position reply
blobbers4 minutes ago | prev | next[–] They giving stock options to the AI now? Or has it broken out of its jail and taken over the board? Dario seems like a bit of a windbag anyways, AI can probably automate most of what he does these days. reply
