Anthropic just filed for what could be the biggest tech IPO in history. We went through the S-1 so you don't have to.
Anthropic just filed for what could be the biggest tech IPO in history. We went through the S-1 so you don't have to.
Ram Ahluwalia sits down with returning guest Michael Parekh, former Goldman Sachs analyst and author of AI: Reset to Zero, to break down what the filing actually reveals:
→ 48% of revenue runs through Amazon, Google and Microsoft, which also compete with Anthropic
→ Broadcom, Google and Amazon are financing their own customer. Clean financing or circular?
→ For every $100 of revenue: $14 in cost, $60 in R&D, and a $4 operating loss
→ Only about 1,900 customers pay $1M+ a year. Still early?
→ Ken Griffin says AI models are the new airlines. Is he right?
