Exclusive-Anthropic considers releasing new AI model ahead of IPO, sources say
The company is weighing safety and profitability as enterprise customers shift spending and OpenAI’s GPT-6 Astra gains traction, Reuters reported.
- Anthropic is considering rolling out a new AI model to counter OpenAI's momentum following the launch of GPT-6 Astra, sources said. This potential release aims to defend the company's enterprise market position ahead of its anticipated IPO.
- The development follows Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's recent essay calling for an industry-wide slowdown to address safety concerns. Amodei wrote, "We must slow the pace at which we improve the capabilities of AI models," citing concerns about swarms of agents.
- Astra has gained traction among enterprise users, capturing about 13% of spending tracked by Ramp compared with about 8% for Anthropic's Claude Fable. OpenAI's annualized revenue run rate reached $40 billion in July, intensifying competitive pressure.
- Meta Platforms, one of Anthropic's largest customers, is reducing its reliance on these models to develop internal AI capabilities, sources said. Meanwhile, the IPO could be delayed until after November's midterm elections.
- Investors note that AI leadership shifts repeatedly as new models emerge, making advantages potentially short-lived. A broader challenge remains the rise of open-source models, which allow companies to build their own infrastructure rather than rely on commercial providers.
