“What I mean is listen, he may well be the second greatest founder of all time behind Elon. Look what he's done in five years, right? Five years to thirty billion, the grit, the greatest grudge startup of all time.”

“I don't buy Dario anymore. He may well be the second greatest founder of all time behind Elon, but I am just so burnt out of the boy who cries wolf.”

“I think that has been not only like disingenuine and wrong, but it's like really hurt the psychology of a lot of people, developers, like just people in the world. Does AI a disservice? Does the world a disservice? Because this is again, talking about the use …”

“I just say on Tropic and the Wall Street Journal, they believe their TAM is 30 trillion. And I, and then I say to myself, oh, I remember everyone when they're doing really well gets slightly delusional. Your time is, you know, the entire US GDP.”

“Dario is showing up because Mark agreed to move Salesforce agreed to move Their LLM spend to Anthropic.”
