Here’s the email to employees:
Team,
Hope everyone’s doing well and enjoying the productivity enhancements from our AI tooling initiative.
Unfortunately, Finance has asked me to clarify a small issue.
It appears someone, and by “someone” I mean apparently all of you simultaneously, managed to spend $500,000,000 on @claudeai usage in a single month.
For context:
•NASA landed on the moon for less.
•We are now the proud owner of approximately 14% of Anthropic.
•Claude personally sent us a thank-you fruit basket.
•Our CFO has entered a fugue state and only communicates through Slack emojis.
•The electricity usage from your prompts briefly dimmed parts of Northern Virginia.
While we appreciate innovation, there are concerns that:
•“Can you make this email sound slightly warmer?” did not require 11,400 generations.
•Asking Claude to “rewrite this in the style of Succession, Hemingway, and Tony Soprano combined” may have been excessive.
•One employee appears to have used Claude to generate “a quick list of lunch options” that somehow consumed the GDP of a small island nation.
Going forward, please observe the following guidelines:
1Do not upload the entire internet into Claude “for context.”
2If your prompt begins with “simulate every possible outcome,” reconsider.
3Claude should not be used to:
◦settle fantasy football disputes,
◦write your wedding vows 97 times,
◦generate revenge edits of your ex’s LinkedIn bio,
◦or ask “what if Rome had WiFi?”
Most importantly:
If you see the message:
“This request may require additional datacenter construction”
…please stop immediately and contact IT.
Thank you all for your cooperation during this challenging yet technologically groundbreaking time.
Warm regards,
Management
P.S. Whoever prompted:
“Generate every possible PR angle for every company founded since 1983”
…we just want to talk.

@WarMonitor3 I guarantee you that 100% of them could get a plane on the ground.

@Truthful_ast This is not a competition moment man. Its just a sad day for everyone who loves and dreams space exploration. Wishing BO fast recovery

I love New Glenn, it's in my top 5 favourite rockets ever
But I just know all those who said New Glenn is better than Starship because they'll beat HLS due to no iterative development and no failures will stay completely silent
Reverse the roles and everyone is shitting on SpaceX saying the Starship program is a failure
English

@Truthful_ast Im Not in Team SpaceX OR Team Blue. Im a Space Nerd and i know, we will need both companys to archieve the Goal of a moon Base. This Explosion is such a setback. It will delay everything 😢
English

All of the "this is why you don't do iterative development, New Glenn is superior" arguments are out of the window, this is a far worse failure than Starship's
New Glenn was operational, just had a second stage failure, and now destroyed an entire stack, the erector, a lightning tower, and for sure a lot of the pad.
Blue Origin will bounce back but this is a horrible delay and pushes them back for the entire year and more.
To the Blue Origin team keep you heads up high, this is just so unfortunate.
English

@Truthful_ast Yeah huge encouragement to the team. This must be devastating. Their development has been so exciting. I hope they push and dont get discouraged

@hahaha0912332 @Husvero I get it, the music in silksong is great. But the hollow knight theme across zones, bosses and cinematics just enchants me.

@SciGuySpace Relax asshole. I love starship, but it hasn't been a series of successes either.

@VantagePointHQx @blueorigin @SawyerMerritt Woopsies. Rooting for them though, keep pushing, we need more players in the space business.

@Polymarket American salaries haven’t kept up with inflation either.
Maybe Mike Johnson should work harder, cancel Netflix, stop buying coffee, and pick himself up by those little bootstraps Republicans keep throwing at poor people.

@thechosenberg Regardless of temperature, telling a teenager what he needs to wear in his room is still crazy.

@BiggClayMusic @aviationbrk Once they are all ai driven like hive mind it will work like a charm.

@aviationbrk 1 of many reasons why we can’t and will not ever have flying cars in our lifetime.

🚨 WATCH: A paraglider gets hit by a Cessna 172 near the Austrian town of Zell am See.
The paraglider was able to pull her rescue parachute and land safely shortly after the incident on Saturday.
According to police, the 44-year-old Austrian had started from Schmittenhöhe in the direction of Piesendorf. Above the Pinzgauer Hütte, she collided at 1:15 p.m. with the Cessna piloted by a 28-year-old.
The pilot of the Cessna, which flew from the Glemm Valley in the direction of Zell am See, was able to land the aircraft safely at Zell am See Airport.

@Alicia_Bittle_ So funny, my wife doesn't like it when I wear deodorant. She always says she "loves my smell".

Men, if this ever happens to you, and your wife/gf didn’t just come off birth control…

@BenjaminDEKR Mastering Regex? It's all trial and error paired with Stack Overflow answers.
