AI Twitter jokes Anthropic will announce a new antibiotic class at its IPO

A running joke on X: someone quipped that Anthropic has "discovered a totally new class of antibiotic effective against resistant bacteria" and plans to announce it at its IPO, hoping no competitor burns a bunch of compute to scoop them. The quoted post spawned a follow-up gag about Anthropic finding the poster a girlfriend. Both mock how labs hoard breakthroughs for capital events while fearing rivals replicating them with raw compute.
