Reposted by RichardEd Zitron @edzitron.com · 29/09/2026Based on my own reporting on OpenAI's audited financials from 2025, it appears that Anthropic was a worse business (at least in that year), spending $2.75 make $1 versus OpenAI spending $2.60 to make $1. So many people told me this company was "more profitable"! www.wheresyoured.at/exclusive-op... 21636137
Reposted by RichardEd Zitron @edzitron.com · 29/09/2026Reuters got some of the IPO docs. Anthropic is a total dog of a company.
