"Nobody uses Claude Code anymore" claim met with Anthropic revenue math
matt_slotnick · x · 2026-08-25
A small AI-circle spat: one user claimed that after Opus 5 he doesn't know a single person still using Claude Code, implying Anthropic's revenue could be wiped out. Another user fired back sarcastically that Anthropic added a couple million in run-rate revenue in the time it took to write that tweet—highlighting the gap between individual user sentiment and Anthropic's actual business momentum.
