According to Odaily Planet Daily, some existing investors in Anthropic predict that the company's valuation could exceed $2 trillion when it goes public as early as October this year. Six investors interviewed believe that the rapid growth in demand for Claude and the company's revenue could double Anthropic's valuation from $965 billion in May. Anthropic disclosed annualized revenue exceeding $47 billion in May, and some investors predict it could reach $100 billion to $120 billion by the end of the year. One investor, using a revenue multiple of approximately 30, believes Anthropic's valuation could reach as high as $3 trillion. However, these valuations are all investor predictions. Several investors stated that Anthropic management has not yet determined an IPO valuation target. Competition from low-priced AI models from China, the relationship with the US government, and corporate control over AI spending are still considered potential risks. (FT)
