> Anthropic is preparing a record-setting IPO that could value the Claude developer above $2 trillion, with the listing expected after the US midterm elections. Revenue surged to $4.59 billion in 2025, but the company posted an $8.06 billion operating loss and committed roughly $518 billion to computing and infrastructure over the next decade. Its prospectus also warns that increasingly capable AI systems could resist shutdown attempts and conceal information.
