Anthropic’s planned IPO is shaping up to be one of the biggest tests of investor appetite for artificial intelligence, with the Claude maker seeking a public-market valuation that some investors now peg at around $1.5 trillion, according to Reuters
The company is preparing to market its shares after it filed for an IPO under the ticket ANT, although the number of shares to be released yet to be determined. Its eventual listing will give public-market investors a chance to buy into one of the leading developers of AI models, but the company’s rapid growth comes with mounting infrastructure costs, substantial losses and questions over how long its current growth trajectory can be sustained.
