New York City Comptroller Mark Levine has called for Anthropic to delay its initial public offering (IPO) until the company addresses several risks concerning the safety, governance, and development pace of its artificial intelligence technologies. Levine’s request adds to the scrutiny Anthropic is facing as it prepares for a potential November IPO, reportedly eyeing a valuation exceeding $2 trillion. This development may impact perceptions of Anthropic’s valuation prospects, as the comptroller oversees significant city pension investments, including a stake in Anthropic. The company’s own research has highlighted potential risks such as code sabotage and information manipulation.
