The Japan Times

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei looks on after a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron during the AI Impact Summit in New Delhi on Feb. 19. As the speed of artificial intelligence development has become increasingly controversial, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei is among those calling for top AI labs to pace the frontier" in order to prioritize safety. Anthropic and some of its shareholders are seeking to raise as much as $64.4 billion in an initial public offering, stopping short of targeting more than SpaceX gathered in its record-setting first-time share sale. The Claude chatbot maker is marketing shares in its IPO for $70 to $78 each, according to a filing on Monday with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Anthropic is offering 801.4 million shares, while backers are selling 23.6 million shares. At the top of the price range, Anthropic would have a market value of about $1 trillion, based on the shares outstanding listed in the filing.

Anthropic targets 1.4 trillion valuation in massive stock market debut

Al Jazeera

Anthropic is seeking a valuation of $1.4 trillion for its upcoming IPO, with the company looking to raise as much as $64.4bn in what would be one of the largest stock market debuts in history. The company, which makes the Claude AI chatbot, launched its investor roadshow on Tuesday, with reported plans to go public next week. It has also secured $26bn in a separate private placement backed by some of the world's largest tech companies, including Google, Nvidia, Microsoft and AMD. The listing is being closely watched as a major test for how much investors are still willing to bet on AI companies, which have driven huge gains in tech stocks and the broader US market. The $1.4 trillion valuation is lower than earlier estimates, which had suggested Anthropic could be valued between $1.5 trillion and $2 trillion, as concerns grow about the company's enormous infrastructure spending and recent swings in AI stock prices.

Anthropic to raise 64bn in major stock market listing

BBC News

Anthropic, the AI company behind the Claude chatbot, is planning to raise up to $64bn (£48bn) when it lists its shares for sale on New York's Nasdaq stock exchange. The loss-making company said it will offer its shares for between $70 and $78 each in its initial public offering (IPO), which is expected to go ahead this month. Anthropic is floating at a volatile time for AI businesses - following last week's US midterm elections, the Nasdaq fell sharply on concerns a Democrat-led Congress could slow development of the technology and the buildout of infrastructure such as data centres. There are also wider fears over the billions of dollars being spent on AI and whether it will pay off. Fiona Cincotta, a senior market analyst at City Index, said the amount Anthropic wants to raise is fairly bullish within the volatility [and] concerns towards AI that we've seen in sort of particularly last week.


Tear Down Those Guardrails! Meet the Renegades Freeing Chatbots From Corporate Enslavers

WIRED

The "abliterators" are flooding the internet with AI models that never say no, making it easier for people to improve their cyberdefenses--or build a bomb. Devon Thomas hardly seems like a renegade. Members of his bible study group, he tells me, would probably describe him as unfailingly kind and polite. And yet Thomas is doing something that many in the AI world consider borderline blasphemous. His new company, Abliteration AI, removes safeguards from the world's most powerful open-weight models. It also makes these models available to anyone. As someone who covers AI and constantly hears about the need for increased safety, I was fascinated to learn about this subversive business venture.

Mizuho pierces Nomura's Japan bubble with big-ticket global IPOs

The Japan Times

Mizuho is strengthening its position in Japan's investment banking market by securing a key role in a string of major U.S. listings, including Anthropic's, and tapping Japanese investors for up to $3.5 billion. Mizuho Financial Group is carving out a lucrative niche in Japan's equity capital market by bridging the ravenous U.S. demand for artificial intelligence fundraising and its home country's deep pool of retail savings. Anthropic's listing is the third in a string of blockbuster deals where Mizuho snagged a key role, looking to raise as much as $3.5 billion from Japanese investors. It shows that the bank is able to leverage its success in building a U.S. business to compete on a market traditionally dominated by Nomura Holdings where domestic deals have hit a drought. The Claude chatbot maker is following SpaceX in bringing a mega deal to the Japanese market, attracted to its cash-rich retail investors and a streamlined offering process.
