What Anthropic's 25 Gigawatts Can Earn in 2030

On Wednesday I showed what OpenAI has to believe to break even in 2030 and said I would run the same exercise for Anthropic. However, when I started working on Anthropic, I realized the relevant questions are a bit different for the company.

A quick update on Deep Dives

I won’t be publishing anything new today, but I wanted to share a short update on the Deep Dives I’ve been working on. Last month, I started working on Micron to understand the memory complex a bit better.
