It's Sam.

From what I understand he was the only one crazy enough to demand hundreds of GPUs for months to get ChatGPT going. Which at the time sounded crazy.

So yeah Sam is the guy with the guts and vision to stay ahead.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

You might see Sam as a Midas who can turn anything into gold. But history shows that very few people sustain that pattern.

It is in terms of users. There's a lot of sticking power to "the thing you already know and use".

Probably consumers. Enterprise is Anthropic, double ahead: https://menlovc.com/perspective/2025-mid-year-llm-market-upd...

note that menlo is invested in anthropic, but still..
