Both Anthropic and OpenAI are rushing to dump their sorry carcasses onto the public markets, and ”training” is going to be something they frame as a different kind of expense. In reality, training is as necessary a fuel for OpenAI or Anthropic as gasoline is for a car.

To be clear, the other biggest story in AI right now is that NVIDIA is specifically NOT giving OpenAI $100 billion, which they need so that they are able to start paying Oracle, who needs that money to pay the debt. Hey where’re you going didn’t you want any stock

My work, which @iwriteok.bsky.social is directly responsible for growing, has been cited directly in town hall meetings that have killed data center projects, I have had @bcmerchant.bsky.social on discussing AI regulation, I am arguably one of the most notable critics of ai. What else do you want

I also call bullshit on them making $13 billion this year, as I call bullshit that OpenAI made $1.58bn in the space of a month. Also isn’t it weird that OpenAI is mysteriously raising this huge round but we don’t know…anybody in it? Other than maybe Amazon? Is this leak meant to be an advert?
