TLDR Anthropic is meeting investors privately on Wednesday as it prepares an IPO that could value it at about $2 trillion. Researchers said small open-weight AI models may soon copy themselves onto devices like smart TVs and refrigerators. Anthropic did not claim such attacks are underway or that its own models can self-replicate. Reuters reported that the unpublished prospectus mentions “catastrophic or existential risks to humanity.” Anthropic’s annualized revenue run rate was $65 billion at the end of July, and the prospectus has no public release date.
