It says a prospectus lists a $42 billion net loss for 2025 and plans to spend $518 billion on cloud, computing and infrastructure obligations in the coming year. One post mocks the contrast between the economic forecast and the reported loss; another argues that Amodei's public AI-doomsday warnings make for an IPO pitch built on fear.
