On October 1, as reported by Business Insider, Michael Burry—the real-life inspiration behind the film "The Big Short"—remarked that it might actually be beneficial for humanity if a stock market crash were to prevent OpenAI and Anthropic from going public. He elaborated that these two companies could potentially absorb and annihilate trillions of dollars in capital, and even that might not be the worst of the repercussions. OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, has expressed that going public in 2026 would be unwise, citing concerns over AI safety. Anthropic, in contrast, might consider going public following the US midterm elections in November. Burry also noted that his pessimistic outlook on the AI industry could materialize within the next year, and he has ramped up his short positions on companies such as Nvidia.
