◆ TOPIC · AI CAPITAL
The AI Capital thread.
AI Capital tracks the money, market structure, and risk pricing reshaping the AI industry — from SpaceX's $1.75T IPO and its $26B annualized compute rent from Anthropic and Google, to GitHub's shift to usage-based billing as 17M agent-authored PRs decouple engineering cost from headcount. Coverage spans frontier-lab valuations, index inclusion fights, and the reliability and security exposures investors are now forced to underwrite.

The subsidized era of AI inference ended this week with a date on it: June 15.

Leader Anthropic's Mythos became the first AI model to autonomously achieve full network takeover across both of the UK AISI's hardest simulated ranges, which is to say not persistence or lateral movement but end-to-end compromise.

Data Science Anthropic quietly killed the flat-rate Claude developer subsidy — subscriptions now convert to dollar-matched API credits, metering every Agent SDK, GitHub Action, and batch eval job at list price.

Leader Your security stack's three core assumptions failed simultaneously this week: TrustedSec proved AI reverses all five major EDR products in days (not weeks), Anthropic's Mythos became the first model to complete both AISI full-network-takeover ranges, and PraisonAI was weaponized within 4 hours of disclosure.
The security operating model, the enterprise software stack, and the org chart are all being rewritten this quarter by the same force: AI co…
