Anthropic files for IPO, expands Claude Mythos as Meta AI hack hits Instagram
Anthropic goes public, Meta AI abused, and Alphabet raises $80B for AI buildout.
Anthropic, the AI company behind Claude, has confidentially filed for an IPO with the U.S. SEC, edging ahead of rival OpenAI. The filing comes as Anthropic expands access to its flagship Claude Mythos model, now deployed for critical infrastructure in over 15 countries, including EU nations. The move signals confidence in its enterprise AI offerings and a push to monetize its advanced reasoning models.
In parallel, security researchers uncovered that hackers exploited Meta AI chatbots to gain access to high-profile Instagram accounts, locking users out and highlighting vulnerabilities in AI-powered customer support. Alphabet (Google's parent) is raising $80 billion to fund its AI buildout, while HPE shares soared 28% after strong earnings driven by AI infrastructure demand. Trump also signed an executive order urging oversight of new AI models.
