Where are they getting $1.5 billion from? Is this business actually profitable?

Wouldn’t doubt it for a second. They create a product they can easily gaslight all the corporate chumps into buying, and by the time they realize there’s 0 roi on it, it’s already too late

At least I can enjoy stupid corporate leaders lapping up the dogfood they’re told to eat, except for the pain workers and real people suffer as a result of this yheft, trash and grift.

If I could pirate a bunch of content then pay back only 10% of the value while pocketing the rest I’d be thrilled

$13B Series F

Absolutely astounding that they can raise $13B on a sixth round of funding on that.
For the less finance jargon savvy, “run-rate revenue” just means projected annual revenue.

500 million was specific to Claude Code, they are at 5 billion annual run rate and growing
Botzo@lemmy.world 3 days ago
I see. That definitely makes 13B way more sane.

Anthropic’s news page is educational in every sense of the word.

Yikes.

Does this imply that it’s the sixth round?
Goddamn.
