Anthropic is moving toward a blockbuster IPO later this year, expected to generate $100 billion in annualized revenue, even as CEO Dario Amodei has publicly warned that AI carries serious risks and that progress should be slowed. MIT Technology Review reported that Amodei's recent warnings prompted OpenAI CEO Sam Altman to agree on X that pacing is needed. Dawn noted that Anthropic disclosed Claude now leads over a quarter of its R&D work and collaborates with human staff. The apparent contradiction—issuing doomsday warnings while pursuing a major public offering—has not deterred investor interest.

Where they diverge

Free Malaysia Today frames the IPO as likely to proceed despite warnings; MIT Technology Review emphasizes the safety warnings themselves and industry concern about AI-enabled bioweapons; Dawn focuses on Anthropic's disclosure of AI self-improvement capabilities; the New York Times highlights the tension between Amodei's calls to slow development and the company's commercial momentum. All outlets agree on the core facts but differ in which aspect they foreground.
