Anthropic files for $1T IPO: Is AI an existential threat?

0 June 2, 2026 18:54

Anthropic on Monday said it filed plans for an initial public offering, setting it up for a share sale that could value the company in the trillion-dollar range as it races against rival OpenAI.

It’s one of three highly anticipated AI IPOs expected this year, along with OpenAI and SpaceX — allowing retail investors to get in on some of the most valuable AI startups and giving early investors the chance for multi-billion-dollar paydays.

AI experts debate whether or not the race between AI superpowers could lead to the end of humanity.
