POPE LEO XIV ANNOUNCES PARTNERSHIP WITH ANTHROPIC WE LIVE IN A SIMULATION







NEW: Chinese AI pet translating startup claims it can interpret pets' speech with up to 95% accuracy.

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.





Anthropic projects Q2 revenue of $10.9B, up 130% from a year ago, and its first-ever operating profit at $559M, per WSJ. Q1 revenue came in at $4.8B. The figures were shared with investors as part of a funding round likely to push its valuation above OpenAI's. The company says revenue is now growing faster than Zoom did during the pandemic and faster than Google and Facebook ahead of their IPOs. As recently as last summer, Anthropic didn't expect a full-year profit until at least 2028. Operating profit here includes the cost of training new models but excludes stock-based comp, and the company notes it may not stay profitable for the full year given planned spending increases.
