In this episode of The Brainstorm, Sam and Frank dig into the rumors of a multi-trillion-dollar Anthropic initial public offering (IPO). A company that started the year at $9 billion in run rate revenue may now be approaching $70 billion, adding more than a whole Salesforce in revenue in less than a year. The team walks through what a $2 trillion valuation would actually imply, why that multiple could land below public AI winners like Palantir and Cloudflare, and what the S1 might reveal about profitability. Then the conversation turns to the Pareto Frontier, where 14 of the 16 most cost-efficient models are proprietary, Google has none, and SpaceX AI has clawed its way back with Grok 4.6 and Grokbot.
