GaryMarcus · x · 2026-08-16
Gary Marcus quoted Gavin Baker's comments on the upcoming Anthropic S-1 filing, suggesting it will shatter many investor misconceptions. Baker claimed that Anthropic is generating cash and is profitable, and that OpenAI and SpaceX are either profitable or imminently so, arguing against the narrative that token subsidies are leading to collapse. Marcus questioned the transparency of these companies, asking why they aren't more open about their finances if these claims are true.
