These numbers seem made up at times / difficult to comprehend what they expect is happening ...

This is the fastest-growing company by revenue, jumping from $1B to $3B in just five months. Hitting $10B is only a matter of time, which would put its valuation at a reasonable ~18x sales multiple. It doesn't even matter where we are in the AI hype cycle - AI adoption will keep increasing, it's not even a question at this point.

From a technical perspective, they manage to attract top talent - Google / OpenAI lose a lot of good people to Anthropic. This is important since there are few people who can transform a business (e.g., the guy who built Claude Code). Being attractive for top talent means you're more likely stumble upon them.

My baby grew from 9 pounds to 18 pounds in a 3 months! Hitting 10000 lbs is only a matter of time.

OK I will remind you how stupid your comment was when they reach $10B in revenue next year.
