    They gobbled up the easy money… now they have to work harder for more, and yeah, they may have to slow down a bit and embrace fiscal responsibility… I expect to see restructuring of debts along the way, but I’d be very surprised to see any of the major US based players implode.

      Both Anthropic & OpenAI have debt repayments coming up in 2027 that:

      • cannot be restructured
      • cannot be postponed
      • they absolutely cannot pay back without even more VC money, and that faucet is being cut off right now.

        Well then. I stand corrected. The random Internet person with unprecedented access into the books & private financial dealings of two major competitors has an air-tight argument.

        I suggest we come back to this thread in a year’s time and see how it is playing out.
