Claude’s rapid rise is now tangled in global politics. Anthropic is quietly building a $4B revenue engine.
Claude’s creators want to double their valuation to $150B.
That’s more than twice their current worth—and they might just get it.
Anthropic is quietly locking in a monster funding round, backed by serious names: Google, Amazon, and now… the Middle East?
Yes. Abu Dhabi’s MGX fund is interested.
But here’s the plot twist—CEO Dario Amodei raised an ethical red flag.
He warned staff about “enriching dictators” through foreign money.
And yet, the funding race is brutal.
OpenAI’s already valued at $300B and Claude needs compute, talent, and runway to compete.
Their revenue? Rocketed from $1B to $4B annually this year.
Mostly through business subscriptions. That’s 80% of their income. Serious traction.
But no one’s profitable yet.
Both OpenAI and Anthropic are burning through cash—and fighting Meta, Musk, and every deep-pocketed VC along the way.
Meanwhile, Claude is quietly taking over the coding space.
And OpenAI’s GPT-5? Rumored to drop next month.
The AI wars just escalated.
