AI Titans Clash Anthropic Secures Massive Funding to Challenge OpenAI

Another Big Beautiful AI Deal

Folks let me tell you this Anthropic deal is HUGE. Absolutely massive. $30 billion can you believe it? They're saying it's the second largest private tech fundraising EVER. It's fantastic really. People are always asking me 'Mr. President what about AI?' And I tell them 'We're gonna make it the best the biggest the most beautiful AI believe me.' This Anthropic deal it's a testament to American innovation even if some of those folks used to work at OpenAI. We're gonna have so much AI you're gonna get tired of AI. But you won't because it's gonna be so great. Sad.

Keeping Up with the Joneses (or OpenAIs)

You know OpenAI they're good they're okay. But Anthropic they're really stepping up. They're trying to keep pace which is what you need. You need competition. Otherwise you end up with well you know. But let's be clear OpenAI's previous $40 billion round led by SoftBank was also a tremendous amount of money. Some people might be asking about Wealthy Families on the Move: A Mass Exodus Like Never Before and their investments into these companies which are doing very well by the way. They have some very large tax advantages and it looks like a lot of people are moving into AI investments too. The fact is that Anthropic is a great company. I know many people are moving to invest into this space and take advantage of the tremendous opportunity we are facing. I tell people all the time "You have to think anyway so why not think big?" because that's how we win. And we will keep winning.

Money Money Money – It's a Rich Man's World (or AI's)

Now developing these AI models it's not cheap folks. It costs a lot of money. We're talking bigly money. That's why Anthropic and OpenAI they're raising these HUGE sums. They need the computing power. They need those Nvidia GPUs which are fantastic by the way. Everyone wants them. Even Google they're throwing around $185 billion in capital expenditures. That's a lot of money even for Google. I have so much money and they still think they are better. Pathetic.

The Best People the Best Deals

Anthropic they've got some smart people. Former OpenAI some of the best believe me. Their latest funding round led by Coatue and Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC – these are serious people. They know a good deal when they see one. D. E. Shaw Founders Fund ICONIQ – the best. And Microsoft and Nvidia they're putting in billions. It's a tremendous vote of confidence. Sad!

Enterprise vs. Consumer – Who Wins?

Here's the thing: OpenAI they're good with the consumer stuff like ChatGPT. Very popular I hear. But Anthropic they're focusing on the enterprises. Businesses. Big companies. And that's smart. Because businesses they have the money. And Anthropic's revenue it's climbing. $14 billion annualized. Not bad not bad at all. The message from customers it's very simple: Claude is critical. Very important everybody knows that. Everyone is talking about it.

Software Stocks Tremble at the Might of AI

Now you hear about these software stocks they're down. Way down. $2 trillion in market cap GONE. Why? Because of AI. Because of Anthropic's Claude Code which automates software development. Tremendous coding tool believe me. Saves so much time. Enterprise users they love it. So yeah software stocks are shaking in their boots. But that's progress. That's innovation. And we're gonna win so big you're gonna get tired of winning. But you won't. Sad!
