Anthropic Overtakes OpenAI on Revenue

Today's AI news roundup: Anthropic's $50B run rate and Claude for SMB, Apple agents in the App Store, Adaption's AutoScientist, and Cerebras' IPO day.

The show opened with a recap of a recent European trip and how Google Maps' Ask AI handled cross-country travel like a native guide. From there the conversation moved into the business of AI, with and a new small-business offering aimed squarely at where the money actually lands. The back half pulled the threads forward: agents distributed through the App Store, recruiting firms training agents instead of placing humans, humanoid robots sorting packages, and a research startup automating model customization with AutoScientist. The episode closed on Cerebras going public, why speed and intelligence are not the same axis, and a teaser on KV cache for tomorrow.
