The NYT lines up the usual passel of tech journos, runs the 2018 hit piece playbook, and only manages to make @DavidSacks look like the perfect man for the job. Finally, someone running AI and crypto...who actually knows about the business of AI and crypto.

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Leads with a specific number, which is concrete enough to be worth a second of attention.
Contradicts something the audience already believes, which stops the scroll.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Leads with a number
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: plain, matter-of-fact
Mechanisms: Pattern interrupt
Written for: People building with AI

We've raised $65 billion in Series H funding at a $965 billion post-money valuation, led by @AltimeterCap, Dragoneer, @Greenoaks, and @sequoia. This investment will help us advance our research and expand our capacity to meet growing demand for Claude.

As part of our $600B commitment, Mac mini will be produced in the US for the first time later this year! We're accelerating our progress even further— producing more AI servers and opening an all-new Apple Advanced Manufacturing Center for hands-on training.

Disney has cancelled their deal with OpenAI. They planned to invest $1 billion into the company and let Sora have access to AI generate videos of characters from Disney, Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars. (Source: t.co

ANTHROPIC VALUATION: $965B WALMART VALUATION: $940B ANTHROPIC REVENUE: $20B WALMART REVENUE: $725B BUT AI IS NOT A BUBBLE, RIGHT?

I will soon be introducing a bill to give the public a 50% ownership stake in the largest AI companies in America. This would guarantee that the trillions created by AI are used to improve the lives of all of us — and block oligarch decisions that harm the American people.

We’ve raised $30B in funding at a $380B post-money valuation. This investment will help us deepen our research, continue to innovate in products, and ensure we have the resources to power our infrastructure expansion as we make Claude available everywhere our customers are.

The new business model that pays for the Internet in a world of AI agents instead of humans browsing. Will take a while as most humans are still using AI as a siloed browser experience, but as soon as they start using AI like everyone in tech, the model will flip and quickly.

Hyperliquid makes just over $100M of annual revenue per employee, or about 50x Apple, Meta, or your typical FAANG company. It's effectively the benchmark price for oil on off hours when the Iran war is kicking off, plus increasingly other real-world assets. Incredible arc.

I remember those disagreeing with me that this would ever happen. Two OpenAI numbers for you: They burn $10B a year. Their ARPUs are $9 (which is shit). Clear as day if you spit out the AI Kool-Aid for a moment and think about how this is all going to work as a business.

Facebook once created an ad showing people in social settings ignoring the people around them to have artificially good times through what friends were doing in Feed. Employees hated it and it was quashed. Companies occasionally reveal their corporate ids without realizing.

I have thus far maintained my silence on the Apple situation as I've sought to settle things amicably with the company that I admired, and at which I hoped to build the future of ads privacy. As they however are not maintaining their silence on the matter, neither will I.
