Anthropic’s upcoming IPO feels more like a duty than a thrill. The company’s prospectus even flags “existential risks to humanity,” hinting that if AI ever threatened our species, shareholders wouldn’t be the top priority.
- Founders Dario Amodei and Sam Altman—who recently delayed OpenAI’s listing—seem to be tempering hype around AI.
- Elon Musk appears to be on board, signaling a collective pause despite a market eager for big tech floats, even SpaceX’s mega‑IPO.
- Both Anthropic and OpenAI keep rolling out new models, each vying for investor dollars, but the rush may be slowing down.
In short, the AI frenzy isn’t fading, just taking a breather.
