> Some Anthropic investors are considering a lower valuation ahead of its IPO, with around $1.5 trillion discussed at an investor event, down from expectations of roughly $2 trillion for the November share sale. Anthropic reported third-quarter revenue of $16.8 billion, up 45% sequentially, and adjusted profitability, though some investors were disappointed by slower growth.
