TL;DR

The All-In pod analyzes a massive week in tech, starting with Andre Karpathy joining Anthropic to lead recursive AI self-improvement. They break down SpaceX's $75B IPO filing, highlighting a $1.25B/month deal with Anthropic for compute. They also dissect Nvidia's earnings blowout, rebutting the 'share loss' narrative by showing they are actually gaining share in the Western market. Finally, they warn of a potential bond market crisis driven by inflation fears but argue the US is uniquely positioned with energy independence and AI dominance.

Key Quotes

"And I think if you were to and I just I so wish they had reported slightly differently... Nvidia's AI business is growing faster than Broadcom's than Broadcom's."
Gavin Baker

Threads

Andre Karpathy joins Anthropic

Andre Karpathy joins Anthropic to lead a pre-training team focused on recursive self-improvement, aiming for a 'new form of Moore's law' where models improve themselves. Anthropic is now EBIT positive and growing fast.

SpaceX IPO and EWS deal

SpaceX filed an S1 seeking a $75 billion raise at a $1.75 trillion valuation. The filing reveals a massive new revenue stream: Elon Web Services. Anthropic is paying SpaceX $1.25 billion per month to rent Colossus 1 and parts of Colossus 2, a $45 billion deal over three years.

Nvidia earnings and share loss narrative

Nvidia reported $81.6 billion in revenue with 85% year-over-year growth, yet faces a 'share loss' narrative. Gavin Baker argues this is mathematically incorrect; when comparing apples to apples (excluding China), Nvidia's AI business is growing faster than Broadcom's. He also debunks the '4-6 year GPU lifespan' theory, noting hyperscalers are signing 6-year contracts because the hardware is actually useful for that long.

AI PR crisis and messaging

The tech industry faces a PR crisis due to poor messaging on layoffs; CEOs like Matthew Prince (Cloudflare) and Zuckerberg are scaring the public by framing employees as 'measurers' to be replaced. The panel argues the focus should be on end-user utility rather than fear-mongering.

Macro bond market and energy

The macro picture is deteriorating with bond yields spiking—the 10-year hitting 4.6% and Japan's 30-year hitting 5.1%. However, the panel argues the US is uniquely positioned with energy self-sufficiency and AI dominance, making it the 'best house in a bad neighborhood.'

US-China visit outcomes

The recent US-China visit resulted in symbolic deals (soybeans, aircraft) rather than a grand de-escalation, but established a geopolitical 'chessboard' alignment. The US is leveraging energy leverage over China, noting that if the Strait of Hormuz is closed, China loses access to Middle Eastern oil.
