Anthropic files for IPO that could rank among largest ever

npr.org —

Anthropic, maker of the Claude AI chatbot, filed for an initial public offering Monday under the ticker ANT, with analysts valuing the company between $1.5 trillion and $2 trillion, potentially one of the largest IPOs ever. The filing with the SEC marks a milestone for the five-year-old startup, founded by ex-OpenAI researchers led by Dario Amodei. The prospectus did not specify share numbers or pricing, but the listing could occur as soon as November. The IPO arrives amid volatile AI stock markets and safety concerns, with OpenAI delaying its own listing. Anthropic faces risks including potential AI harm, Pentagon conflicts, and questions about an AI bubble.
