Anthropic is worth one trillion before going public, the bill is for you

Published on June 02, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

Artificial intelligence has already reached dreamlike valuations. Anthropic, creator of Claude, surpasses one trillion dollars in the private market. The founders are preparing their fortunes, investors dream of capital gains, and meanwhile, the cost of living keeps rising. The news will sell it as a technological milestone. The fine print, as always, is paid by you.

This is how the machine that promises to change your job works 🤖

Claude, Anthropic's model, is trained on millions of texts and parameters. Its security architecture, called constitutional AI, attempts to limit harmful responses. But the real goal is to reduce labor costs: automate customer service, report writing, and data analysis. Companies adopt these tools to cut staff. Technology advances, but layoffs are not a system failure, but its purpose.

Don't worry, soon you'll be able to ask Claude to do your grocery shopping 🛒

While Anthropic's owners celebrate their trillion-dollar valuation, you'll be able to use their AI to calculate how much you have left after paying rent. Of course, with a human touch: the system will remind you that you are replaceable. But it's okay, because the news will say it's innovative. And if you lose your job, you can always ask Claude how to survive on 500 euros a month. I'm sure it will have a very optimistic answer.
