In the Loop AI

Anthropic just filed its S-1 ahead of what could be the biggest IPO in history, and the whole market has been waiting on it. Chip stocks fell eight sessions in a row, the headline number is an $80.7 billion loss, and everyone wants to know: is Anthropic actually making money, and are we in an AI bubble? Ejaaz came in skeptical and went through the filing. It's not what it looks like.
We break down revenue that went from $41 million in 2023 to $16.3 billion in the first half of 2026, why Anthropic now makes about $2 for every $1 it spends on compute, 900% net revenue retention, Claude Cowork outpacing Claude Code, the $120.5 billion going to SpaceX for GPUs, $132 billion in cash and short-term investments, and why $72.4 billion of that loss is an accounting charge, not cash out the door.

Anthropic finally has its answer to Meta Muse, OpenAI Dots and Grok Bot. Claude Duet is a 24/7 personal agent that works on its own computer in the cloud, carries over your Claude memory and connected apps, and comes to you with what needs your attention. Ejaaz has had early access for 48 hours: he maps a five-mile walk through streets he's never walked, prices a Shadowless Charizard with live eBay listings, and shows the Tasks tab it fills overnight. Then how it compares, what it costs, and whether you can trust it.
We also cover the money behind the agent race: OpenAI's $30 billion round, DeepSeek's $15 billion raise, Meta's first negative free cash flow quarter since 2012, and why 2027 capex is shaping up to be enormous.

In the last 48 hours, AI attacks have gone from one-off incidents to something much bigger. Major U.S. banks are detecting unauthorized AI agents inside customer accounts, and they can't tell them apart from humans. At the same time, two critical bugs in PHP, the language behind an estimated 70% of websites, leaked before the patch was out, and the NSA, the FBI and Japan's prime minister told organizations to take their systems offline. Ejaaz breaks down what's happening, how the PHP flaw was found by AI and kept secret for months, the hacking group that used Claude and Grok agents against more than 400 Latin American financial targets, and why open-source models are the ones fighting back.

Then the bigger questions: who is behind it, why AI agents are so hard to trace, and the steps you can take today to protect yourself.

Four months ago, half of Wall Street wrote off SpaceX's record IPO as massively overvalued. Last night it reported $14.6 billion in revenue in a single quarter and the first profit in its history. The surprise is where the money came from: AI. SpaceX has become the number one neocloud, renting compute to Anthropic and Google for billions of dollars a month, and its AI business now out-earns Starlink. Ejaaz breaks down the xAI pivot, how Elon brings 200,000 GPUs online a month, the power bottleneck, and Elon's projection of a $500 billion to $1 trillion annual run rate in 2027.

Then the bigger picture: the SpaceX and Tesla merger committees, Starlink and StarMind, where Tesla's cars and Optimus robots fit, TeraFab's plan to build the biggest chip plant on Earth, and what could still go wrong.

One chart and one five-letter reply ("Yikes") sent AI stocks into their longest losing streak since 2008, with CoreWeave's bond yield touching 15% and roughly $1.6 trillion knocked off chip stocks. Ejaaz breaks down what actually happened: how neoclouds like CoreWeave borrow to build data centers, why the market got spooked, and whether credit default swaps are really pricing a coin flip.

Then the bear and bull case: debt coming due, customer concentration and the "bank of Nvidia" on one side; demand sold out past 2028, rising GPU rents and a power bottleneck that slows the build-out on the other. It looks like 2008. Here's why it isn't.
