Anthropic Gains Momentum as Burry Bets Palantir's Edge Fades

Investor Michael Burry said Anthropic is outpacing Palantir, pointing to Anthropic’s rapid ARR growth (from $9B to $30B) and its easy-to-integrate, plug-and-play AI tools as reasons businesses are flocking to Claude, which helped send Palantir shares lower after his comments. Burry, who has a shorts position on Palantir, argues the AI market is shifting toward private-sector AI solutions, diminishing Palantir’s government-heavy edge.
