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.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Opens on a negative, which reads as a warning and is harder to ignore than a claim.

The mechanics

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

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 $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.

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.

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

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.

Attorney General Pamela Bondi

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

Fable 5.1 is our best model yet for coding, data analysis, computer use, design, presentations, Tag, and the hardest long-running agentic work. This model is a pleasure to work with, and I've been using it for everything.

We're launching Claude Tag today. Tag Claude into Slack and it works in channel with you. It’s proactive, multiplayer, with its own identity and memory. But it’s not just a bot in Slack. Over the last few months, it’s totally changed how we use Claude

Big migrations and refactors are some of a team's most important work, and the easiest to push off to a "better time" since they'd tie up engineers for a quarter. With dynamic workflows, Claude can now land that kind of work in days or weeks. More: t.co

The UK AISI found Mythos Preview is the first model to solve both their cyber ranges end-to-end. No model had ever solved the AISI’s “Cooling Tower” cyber range before. We're getting it to defenders as fast as we responsibly can. More to come on our Glasswing work soon.

🎁 Happy Friday - Opus 4.6 1M is now the default Opus model for Claude Code users on Max, Team, and Enterprise plans. Pro and Sonnet users can opt in with /extra-usage.

We've been working on this for a while -- it's impressive (and scary) to see the kinds of security issues it has identified. Rolling out slowly, starting as a research preview for Team and Enterprise customers.
