OpenAI and Anthropic revenue growth signals AGI eating white-collar work
haider1 · x · 2026-08-27

If this revenue keeps compounding toward the $30T global white-collar wage pool, it indicates that AI is economically consuming more useful work. It also notes that Astra hasn't launched yet, but OpenAI claims it has already hit their internal "AI research intern" benchmark.
