Anthropic latest AI firm to file for IPO

US AI firm Anthropic said it has confidentially filed for an initial public offering (IPO) with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. It's the latest AI giant to announce plans to reach public markets. Anthropic has not decided how many shares it will offer or at what price. It said the details will depend on "market conditions and other factors."

Some US media outlets report the IPO will likely happen this fall. The company said last month its market valuation had reached 965 billion dollars. Elon Musk's aerospace and AI development firm SpaceX is also set to go public. Its initial offering scheduled for next week is expected to be one of the biggest ever. ChatGPT developer OpenAI is also said to be aiming for public listing as early as September.
