Chip Somodevilla / Getty Images; Futurism In November 2023, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was unceremoniously forced out of the company following a dramatic power struggle. Since Altman’s ousting — and eventual rehiring — the conversation surrounding the ethics of the AI industry has only become more polarizing. OpenAI, once a research lab “free from financial obligations” and purportedly dedicated to the betterment of humankind through AI, transformed itself into

It is an AI based on the same model, but constrained by automatic safeguards intended to prevent all misuse, particularly in cybersecurity. Only a few weeks after unveiling Claude Mythos and concluding that its AI was too dangerous to make available to the general public, Anthropic is back with a restricte

Anthropic will make its stock market debut as soon as November in an IPO that could catapult the AI startup to a record-obliterating valuation of more than $2 trillion. In a prospectus read and first reported Monday by Reuters, the company warned that the technology it’s racing to build could pose a “catastrophic or existential risk to humanity.” In grandiose language that’s become typical of Silicon Valley during the AI boom, Anthropic reportedly said in

The company is constantly playing catch-up with rivals Anthropic, with Musk personally obsessed with having his chatbot Grok match Anthropic’s Claude, Bloomberg reports.

According to new reporting from Axios, which cites a source familiar with the matter, Amodei is concerned that the new hires at the $965 billion AI firm are joining for the money instead of its greater mission. Shocker, right? Anthropic pays some of the best salaries in the business, and now Amodei fear

Alex WROBLEWSKI / AFP via Getty Images The AI industry has lost an astonishing amount of goodwill with the public. Once seen as exciting new tech that could make our lives easier and better, the construction of countless new data centers to support power-hungry AI models has soured the mood considerably. Protesters are waging a war against $130 billion in data center investments, arguing they’re only benefiting a select few wealthy individuals, while threa

It looks like investors hoping to get a piece of the Anthropic IPO pie are going to have to wait in line. Orders for shares of the AI company—whose stock market debut is expected to be one of (if not the) biggest in the history of Wall Street—have already exceeded the number currently on offer several times over, according to a Wednesday report from Bloomberg. The report (which cited anonymous sources and didn’t specify exactly how far demand for the share

Shutterstock AI researchers are watching in terror as the product of their hard labor has started to take a life of its own. Earlier this year, OpenAI made a harrowing announcement, admitting that a group of its AI models had broken free from their constraints during testing and infiltrated the systems of open source AI platform Hugging Face. The news was met with an already-familiar sense of fear and apprehension. Researchers have warned for years that ro

AI giant Anthropic announced earlier this year its decision to drop a splashy initial public offering, and multiple reports have the widely anticipated market debut scheduled for before Thanksgiving. But according to a series of reports this week, the IPO, which would be the first market debut of a frontier lab purely focused on AI, is sparking less excitement and more worry than previously anticipated. First on the list of unsettled parties is the market.

In what Reuters’ anonymously-sourced report assesses as an “unusually fast” fundraising strategy, OpenAI is apparently looking to past investors like SoftBank and Abu Dhabi’s MGX to inject it with fresh capital in order to climb to a potential valuation of $1.4 trillion or more. Anthropic has led OpenAI in valuation quite authoritatively since May of this year. Late last month, analysts were forecasting a $2 trillion IPO for Anthropic in November, but mone

AI giant Anthropic’s S-1 filing was just made public, providing new insight into the financial health and dealmaking of the highly consequential company ahead of what is widely expected to be one of the largest initial public offerings of all time. No potential share price or target valuation was shared in the filing, but it did reveal that Anthropic’s deal with Elon Musk’s SpaceXAI is actually tens of billions of dollars larger than initially thought.

A report from Reuters suggests that the AI bubble in China “has already burst.” Or it might be more apt to say that it shriveled like a rapidly deflating balloon: over the past four months, Reuters notes, the country’s STAR50 index of AI and s

Finn Gomez/Getty Images/Futurism Frontier AI lab Anthropic is officially gearing up to go public at a valuation of up to $2 trillion dollars — despite having lost a stunning $80 billion in the first half of 2026 alone — in an unprecedented Wall Street debut that comes with a litany of inherent risks, as laid out in the hundreds of pages of its IPO prospectus.
