Anthropic prepares for potential $2 trillion IPO valuation after reporting billions in revenue

Anthropic has filed for a NASDAQ IPO, targeting a potential $2 trillion valuation. The company reported $16.3 billion in revenue for the first half of 2026. While pursuing this public-market listing, Anthropic warned that its AI safety measures might not prevent catastrophic risks. This move follows similar efforts by OpenAI and Cerebras. The debut could redefine market dynamics, testing investor confidence in specialized AI firms and significantly influencing future valuations across the broader tech sector.
