Gary Marcus flags math: Anthropic's $1.1T valuation needs ~$300B revenue in 5 years

Gary Marcus amplified an estimate by @weakinstrument: even at an $1.1T valuation, Anthropic would need roughly $300B in annual revenue within 5 years — over $30B more than Meta currently makes. The argument: any valuation above $1T demands revenue that keeps climbing, and plateauing would be catastrophic. Marcus's quote highlights concerns about current AI valuations.
