    We just launched a new company with Blackstone, H&F, Goldman, others. $1.5B to bring Claude to mid-size businesses at scale. The demand I see across the economy is outrunning everyone's ability to deploy — ours, our partners', all of it. This is one piece of a very big puzzle.

    Both Anthropic and OpenAI announced a joint venture with PE firms to deploy AI in PE-backed companies. This means SaaS will come back with a revenge with AI armed by these companies and lot more IPOs to come 2027 onwards! These PE firms need liquidity from their SaaS assets!

    Both Anthropic and OpenAI have new initiatives to help enterprises deploy AI agents within their organizations. This is a trend that's early but going to get very big fast. As agents enter knowledge work beyond coding, there is very real work to upgrade IT systems, get agents [im…

    It will be obvious in retrospect that this particular deal (and others like it) will have done more to accelerate AI-driven job losses than just about anything else. Which seems weird to me given Dario's stated concerns about economic disruption from things moving so fast.

    I wonder what the split for this group in terms of working with their PE-backer's portfolios vs going outside of it will be. And how much non-public-tools the opcos will have access to. Given from what I have seen, there is an ocean between the “applied” AI capabilities popular […
