What to make of it

Treat the $80.7B net loss, $72B non-cash charge, $16.3B first-half revenue, and ~$9B compute spend as established across both reports. Do not treat any single total figure for Anthropic's cloud commitments ($450B vs. $518-600B+) as settled until the IPO prospectus itself is checked.
