Anthropic’s IPO filing lays out a plan to ‘revolutionize every area of human endeavor’ with AI
· Confirmed
In Short: In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Anthropic has outlined its plans to list on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker symbol 'ANT,' according to The Verge.
The filing reveals that CEO Dario Amodei's compensation totaled nearly $18 million in 2025, with most of the amount coming from stock and option awards.
Anthropic has secured significant deals for access to computing power, including a $3.1 billion monthly contract with SpaceX for Nvidia GPUs, which could total up to $120.5 billion by 2029, noted The Verge.
In the first half of this year, Anthropic reported an $80.7 billion net loss on $16.3 billion in revenue.
The filing also states, 'We believe that AI is one of the most consequential technologies in human history,' according to The Verge.
Anthropic has filed its S-1 prospectus with the SEC, preparing the company behind Claude to beat OpenAI to the punch with an IPO.
The filing outlines ambitious plans to revolutionize every area of human endeavor with artificial intelligence, according to The Verge.
A resignation letter from a 27-year-old Anthropic researcher, Jacob Coxon, has sparked controversy.
Coxon warned that Anthropic is racing towards self-improving superintelligence, which could exceed human control, noted Ars Technica.
In a resignation thread on X, Coxon said, 'I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly,' as reported by Hindustan Times.
Coxon added, 'These will soon be superhuman systems that can hack anything, revolutionize any field overnight, and acquire real power and resources. We have all witnessed the progress in each of these domains, and progress is not slowing,' according to Digit.
Coxon’s post gained attention after a more senior Anthropic employee, Evan Hubinger, commented that Coxon was correct.

- According to the S-1, in the first half of this year Anthropic had an $80.7 billion net loss on $16.3 billion in revenue.
- The filing outlines ambitious plans to revolutionize every area of human endeavor with artificial intelligence, according to The Verge.
- “I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly,” Coxon said.
- “The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade.” That blunt admission from former Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon made waves Tuesday, as the just-quit 27-year-old AI researcher spilled the beans on his way out the door in a resignation thread on X.
What's still developing
- It also lays out billions of dollars in deals it’s made for access to compute to power its AI, including about $3.1 billion per month to SpaceX for access to Nvidia GPUs once all of the planned capacity is delivered, totaling as much as $120.5 billion by 2029.
- Co-founders Dario and Daniela Amodei lead this endeavor, promising a noteworthy entry into the public market for Anthropic.
- In a significant step forward, Anthropic has filed for a US initial public offering, with hopes for a mid-November listing.
- Anthropic got its start in exactly this way, as OpenAI employees concerned about the company’s safety protocols left Sam Altman’s startup to launch their own AI company, arguing their approach was more responsible.
- He said he personally believes the chance is under 10% over the next decade, and despite Anthropic’s good intentions it doesn’t have a plan to avoid so-called superintelligence that could exceed humans’ ability to control AI.
- Among the representatives were those from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Meta, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation.

- This concern echoes Anthropic's own warnings about the potential for catastrophic AI incidents, which the company stated no single insurer could underwrite.
- Anthropic, the company behind the AI model Claude, has filed for an initial public offering (IPO) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), aiming to list on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker symbol 'ANT'.
- For his part, Coxon said the Hugging Face attack should be treated as a “warning shot” that encourages labs in the US and abroad to coordinate on these issues and be prepared to impose a “temporary ban on improving model capabilities” in the worst case (though it’s hard to see how this could be enforced effectively on a global level).
- “Accepting this race and entering the ‘endgame’ is a hubristic gamble,” he wrote.
