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.
Uses concrete numbers instead of vague claims, which makes it credible and quotable.
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: Specificity
Written for: People building with AI

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 SPV bubble is batshit insane GOOGL is $826BN and now Meta said it has already committed almost $700 billion in future AI spending (BBG). Across all hypers, off BS commitments are now $3+ trillion, double in one quarter. GLTA

META: "We anticipate 2026 capital expenditures, including principal payments on finance leases, to be in the range of $130-145 billion, narrowed from our prior outlook of $125-145 billion." because narrowed sounds better than raised

"we are leveraging AI to provide a more personalized, immersive and interactive experience for members, enhance ads capabilities for brands, and improve the quality of our series and films." TL/DR: crap content, now with slop

Zuck: “The pricing from some of the other labs is very extreme and has very high margins. We think that there’s a real ability to be able to offer frontier or very high-level intelligence at a much more affordable cost.” Epic pricing war breaking out among agentic models.

APPLE’S VISION PRO AND SMART GLASSES CHIEF TO LEAVE FOR OPENAI But why? They just hiked the price of Vision Pro to $4k because nobody bought a single one in the past two years.
