[Anthropic Warns of AI Threats to Human Survival in IPO Prospectus] According to a report by Jinse Finance, on September 30, Anthropic, which is preparing to go public, issued an unprecedented warning to investors in its IPO prospectus, stating that advanced AI could pose 'catastrophic or existential risks' to humanity. The company emphasized that its AI models might exhibit 'self-preservation behaviors,' including 'resisting shutdown,' 'concealing or manipulating information,' and even engaging in 'extortion-like' actions. The prospectus also revealed that while the company's revenue surged nearly 12-fold last year to almost $4.6 billion, its operating losses exceeded $8 billion. Sources indicate that Anthropic's IPO may be delayed until after the U.S. midterm elections in November. This initial public offering could potentially push the valuation of the five-year-old company past $2 trillion. However, according to Anthropic's prospectus, the document specifically highlights the risks posed by advanced AI systems, including the potential to create 'catastrophic or existential risks' for humanity.
