Anthropic's IPO reveals $42B loss and $518B AI infrastructure plan

economictimes.indiatimes.com —

Anthropic's IPO prospectus reveals a sweeping vision for AI transforming the global economy, but with staggering costs, including a $42 billion net loss in 2025 and $518 billion in planned infrastructure spending. Revenue grew 12-fold to nearly $4.6 billion in 2025, though operating losses exceeded $8 billion. The public sale could value the company above $2 trillion, establishing a benchmark for Wall Street's valuation of leading AI firms like OpenAI. Anthropic faces concerns from its own research on autonomous AI risks, and CEO Dario Amodei has urged slower capability releases. The IPO is expected after November's US midterm elections, following SpaceX's recent blockbuster listing.
