Gavin Baker on Anthropic's S-1, GPU Prices, and SpaceX
Gavin Baker calls Anthropic’s S-1 an upside surprise: about half the Fortune 500 has adopted it, with encouraging profitability, cash generation and unit economics.Open-weight infrastructure companies outgrow OpenAI and Anthropic as demand broadens, while GPU rental prices rose daily in October and forward capacity remains expensive into 2027.Potential IPOs and higher cloud pricing could ease reliance on external financing for the 2027 build-out, though Baker is unsure whether external financing has peaked.
Gavin Baker interviews SpaceX CFO Bret Johnsen at Mission Control
Starship V3’s successful first flight, including new V3 Raptors and a soft second-stage splashdown, strengthens conviction that rapid reuse could cut Falcon’s cost per kilogram 10x within the next couple of years.That capability is sequenced with Starlink V3, direct-to-cell and orbital compute: Starlink could grow from 10M customers to hundreds of millions, while SpaceX builds toward thousands of launches annually and heavy silicon capex.

Private-company secondaries have become a third exit market, with 2025 volume roughly twice the 2021 peak and activity equal to 31% of primary venture activity.Forge’s Schwab partnership could distribute private equity to millions of investors through regulated products, while longer private lifecycles, double-fee SPVs and valuation compression make governance, pricing and liquidity worth monitoring.
"Is there an AI bubble?” Gavin Baker and David George
Gavin Baker argues AI does not resemble 2000: NVIDIA trades near 40 times trailing earnings versus Cisco’s 150–180 times, GPUs are fully utilized, and major buyers’ ROIC has risen roughly 10 points.The open risk is whether returns persist through Blackwell spending, while Google’s TPU competition, incumbent distribution, and outcome-based pricing could reshape infrastructure, SaaS margins, and AI monetization.
