Monologue: Annualized Revenues Are BS | Better Offline
In this weekās monologue, Ed Zitron walks you through how and why OpenAI and Anthropic use āannualized revenuesā to hide that theyāre nowhere near their yearly revenue projections.

Episode note: I say ā$5.5 billionā for OpenAIās potential revenue in 2025. Calculations Iāve run since suggest it could be lower - around $5.25 billion. Both of these numbers are reasonable.
