Seems pretty clear Claude is winning this AI race

Anthropic's valuation now hovers at around $1 trillion on Forge Global, a leading private marketplace exchange, its CEO Kelly Rodriques told Business Insider. OpenAI's valuation on the platform is $880 billion, a slight uptick from its March funding round.

Since Anthropic and OpenAI are not yet public companies, the vast majority of investors are forced to buy via secondary markets, with existing stock in the companies sold by current or former employees or early investors. Neither company responded to a request for comment.

One Anthropic shareholder recently offered to unload shares at a $1.15 trillion valuation, according to Ken Sawyer, cofounder and managing partner at Saints Capital, a venture secondary firm.

A "very well known growth fund" offered to buy Anthropic shares at a $1.05 trillion valuation, Jesse Leimgruber, founder of OpenHome, posted on X this week.

"Absolutely wild," he said.

Some interested buyers have gotten more creative, offering to sell their home in exchange for Anthropic shares at a valuation above $800 billion.

So ai is really good at coding but when all the humans who are really good at coding make a new company their ai product beats the older one. mmmmmm. Sorry our local news had this bit on what you can do with ai. one part that was funny was. people expect their workplace to give them a doc on how to use ai but that is not going to happen you have to figure it out for yourself. Its like well you see the management to not competent enough to use ai to create a doc on how they want ai used so its up to the general masses to use ai to figure out ai. Its not just ai but it feels like everything is pushed down to the customer. Its like a combination of pay to work things out yourself and work real hard and someday you will get paid for it. Things are nuts.
