Plenty of examples of companies spending more than they earn for decades. Before OpenAI and Anthropic, though, nobody has ever needed to raise more than $100 billion from investors before turning a profit, though. The scale is immense, enough to where it affects the liquidity of the investors that have funded their rise.
