We have a great show for you today. We're going to talk about the numbers getting even bigger. for Anthropic and OpenAI as they attempt to raise their latest funding rounds. We're also going to look at big tech earnings and ask whether there's any room for error anymore, especially with Microsoft having one of its worst days in years.
