bindureddy · x · 2026-09-29
- Developer Bindi Reddy estimates Anthropic holds roughly $20B in cash while running an annual loss of around $14B, with losses growing year over year.
- At that burn rate, the company would run out of money unless it files for an IPO or raises more capital.
- He also mocks the irony of Anthropic calling itself an "existential risk" to humanity while spending at this pace.
