In a Nutshell

SpaceX IPOed at $1.75T and is trading at $2T, while Anthropic confidentially filed and is projected to hit $3T valuation if public today, with both Anthropic and OpenAI expected to IPO in 6-9 months. Token costs are doubling every 45 days with minimal ROI, prompting companies to seek cost-cutting through open-source routing and cheaper models, though frontier labs maintain revenue dominance as the intelligence gap persists. Meta launched a price war with 100x cheaper tokens, China is restricting overseas access to top models, and the Trump Accounts program is creating millions of investment accounts for children with $1,000 seed money and major philanthropic commitments.

Episode 280 of the All-In podcast features Jason, Brad, and Chamath while Freeberg is on vacation. Brad mentions he has been in DC celebrating America 250 and will be out from August 10th through the 30th. Jason is in Paris conducting eight interviews at the Rays conference.

Chamath attended a dinner in Geneva with Jensen, Brad Smith, Anthony Tan from Grab, and others as part of a United Nations Commission for AI where Mark is the co-chairman. He describes Mark as "the empasario of empisarios" and notes how impressive his ability to build such a large business is.

The UN Commission for AI focuses on open source. Tom Brown from Anthropic was present and was described as "very awesome" rather than alarmist about existential risks. Anthropic believes the future is open source for all countries.

SpaceX went public at a $1.75 trillion valuation and is currently trading at $150 per share, down from $200, maintaining the $2 trillion market cap and ranking as the seventh largest company in the world. Anthropic confidentially filed on June 1st with a 65% chance on Polymarket of IPO happening this year. Gavin Baker believes Anthropic will end 2026 with over $100 billion in revenue and be very profitable, suggesting it would trade at $3 trillion if public today.
