SAN FRANCISCO - The market debut of the artificial intelligence companyAnthropic, a chief rival to OpenAI, could break the record set by SpaceX, US media have reported.Elon Musk’s space company went public in June at a value of $1.77 trillion and raised $85.7 billion in its blockbuster initial public offering, the largest in history.
Anthropic, maker of the Claude AI models, “expects to match or beat the size” of SpaceX’s deal, according to Bloomberg.
The company’s bankers have told potential investors it could seek to raise “more than $100 billion” in its IPO, which could put the company’s value at $2 trillion, The New York Times reported Friday, citing two unnamed sources with knowledge of the talks.
