According to sources familiar with the matter, Anthropic is expected to list negative public sentiment towards AI and data centers as a risk factor in its IPO prospectus, which is set to be released in the coming weeks. The company has been engaging in preliminary discussions with bankers and investors recently, during which its CFO, Krishna Rao, has been repeatedly asked about competition, pressure on profit margins from open-source models, and the impact of the slowdown in data center construction. The company, with a private market valuation of nearly $1 trillion, is preparing to go public amid growing public concerns that AI may replace jobs.
