Elon Musk now literally holds the off switch on Anthropic's $2 trillion IPO. Anthropic's filing shows it has agreed to pay Elon's AI company up to $120.5 billion for computing power. And starting early next year, either side can walk away with 90 days' notice. The deal is with SpaceXAI, the SpaceX unit that used to be xAI, and it rents Anthropic the Nvidia chips that run Claude. In May, the price was $1.25 billion a month for one data center in Memphis. Reuters reported the confidential draft of this filing put the total at $84.5 billion. The public version filed today says $120.5 billion. Once all the capacity arrives in December, the bill jumps: Anthropic expects to pay Musk about $3.1 billion every month. Anthropic reportedly brought in $16.8 billion last quarter, which works out to about $5.6 billion a month. So more than HALF of what Anthropic earns today is about to go to one supplier. Now here's where it gets really insane: The lock-in on those contracts ends in January and March 2027. After that, either side can cancel with 90 days' notice. Fortune reported in July that the clause gives SpaceX a way to take its chips back if Grok suddenly needs more. Grok competes directly with Claude. And in February, Elon publicly called Anthropic's AI evil. So the company selling itself to the public as the safe AI lab is about to run a huge share of its product on hardware owned by its loudest critic. That critic also owns a direct competitor, and he can start the 90-day clock in early 2027. The filing does warn that some of Anthropic's compute suppliers build their own AI models, and that warning reads very differently once the supplier is Elon. And Elon needs this deal just as badly: SpaceX's CFO has promised $100 billion in annual revenue by the end of this year. At full speed, Anthropic's rent comes to about $9.3 billion a quarter. That's more than the roughly $7.6 billion SpaceX's entire AI business brought in last quarter. So 2 of the biggest IPOs in history are now holding each other up, and both of them have a 90-day exit. Anthropic has a real argument here. Computing power is the scarcest thing in AI right now, and Amazon's cloud capacity for 2027 is reportedly largely sold out. The filing even admits Anthropic badly underestimated how much compute it needed in the past. Grabbing every chip on the market is the rational move, and the same clause lets Anthropic leave if cheaper capacity shows up. But public buyers deserve 2 things before the listing: Anthropic should publish how much of Claude runs on SpaceX hardware and what happens to its customers if that notice ever arrives. And it should get the 90-day exit removed for the full length of the contract, the same way its other big compute bills are locked in. Until then, anyone buying ANT at $2 trillion has to answer one question for themselves: Who do they trust to keep Claude running in 2027, Anthropic or Elon Musk?

It is sickening that the USA is now lifting sanctions on Russian fuel, and transparently ridiculous to blame Ukraine for the spike in prices that obviously began with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Putin is murdering innocent Ukrainian civilians every day. The Ukrainians are fighting for their lives. And yet the White House is apparently determined to force American drivers to bankroll Putin’s slaughter. It won’t work and I doubt it will make much difference to the price of fuel. If we want Russian oil and gas back on the world market then let’s end this war - with a free, sovereign and independent Ukraine.

The 🇪🇺 Commission should put forward a proposal that would allow 🇪🇺 Member States to refuse visas to Russian citizens as soon as possible. Russian citizens should not come to Europe and enjoy the freedom that the Ukrainian people are risking their lives to defend. This is completely unreasonable. - Minister for Migration, @JohanForssell.

Five European payment networks, including Bancomat, have established the European Network for Payments (ENP), headquartered in Madrid. Its aim is to create a European alternative to American giants Visa and Mastercard and make payments interoperable and independent.

The EU is destined to become a federation because the 19th century nation state is obsolete. It is simply unfit to protect European citizens and make them sovereign; whether digitally, financially, economically or militarily. The results speak for themselves

♦️Les Français le critiquent, les politiques ne lui font aucun cadeau et les médias se délectent de le flinguer depuis qu’il est président, alors que jamais un président n’avait vécu autant de crises durant ses mandats : Crise des Gilets jaunes. Crise sanitaire. Confinement. Guerre en Ukraine. Crise énergétique. Guerre au Moyen-Orient. Mais il a malgré tout investi massivement dans les hôpitaux avec le Ségur de la santé. Il a redonné des moyens à la police. Il a doublé le budget de nos armées. Il a redonné du poids à la France partout dans le monde. Il a réenclenché un processus de réindustrialisation. Il a renationalisé EDF et relancé comme jamais l’investissement dans le nucléaire. Il a créé deux millions d’emplois dans le pays. Il a inscrit la France dans les nouvelles technologies. La France est le premier pays d’Europe en matière de création de start-up, d’IA et d’innovation technologique. Et malgré toutes ces crises, il a su protéger les Français. Les mêmes qui lui reprochent quoi ? La dette. Alors que personne ne comprend rien à cette dette, alors que 50 % de cette dette est la conséquence des déficits de la Sécurité sociale et des caisses de retraite, alors que tous les Français ont bénéficié et bénéficient encore de cette dette, parce qu’ils en sont les premiers bénéficiaires. Mais les marchands d’illusions vous promettent quoi ? Plus d’austérité, et vous irez vous plaindre que tout va bien ? Moins de dépenses, moins de fiscalité, moins de taxes, moins d’immigrés, plus de fragilité militaire et donc moins de sécurité. Et vous pensez une seconde que le monde va changer ? Les Français seront les premiers touchés, au premier chef ceux qui auront voté pour soutenir cette vague populiste et nationaliste. Le monde est devenu fou. Les peuples se laissent berner par des charlatans, par des bonimenteurs, par des manipulateurs des esprits. Ils le regretteront, comme ils ont conspué de Gaulle pour s’en revendiquer aujourd’hui. Le pire, en politique, n’est jamais derrière nous, mais toujours devant. Alors préparez-vous, parce qu’il arrive. #TAEM un jour, #TAEM toujours. #France #Macron #UE #Renaissance

Lors d'un échange avec @CarlosDiaz nous avons cherché à définir nos points d'accords et de désaccords. Un élément de débat a été : est-ce que la phase réactionnaire de la Silicon Valley peut être qualifiée de fasciste ? Pour essayer de trancher cela, j'ai demandé à Opus de faire une évaluation en partant du petit livre d'Umberto Eco "how to spot a fascist"...
