For an alternate albeit somewhat contrarian view, also see Ed Zitron’s piece that add context to Anthropic’s profitability: https://www.wheresyoured.at/anthropics-profitability-swindle...

TL;DR Ed argues that the deal between Anthropic and xAI could have been negotiated in such a way as to make Anthropic only appear profitable during its “ramp-up” period in June, which incidentally is also the month that Anthropic is making tons of other pricing changes.
