Other Provisional 62% confidence first seen
Two outlets report that Eric Schmidt holds about a 1% stake in Anthropic, tied to his investment in the company’s 2021 Series A and described as larger than CEO Dario Amodei’s reported stake. The reporting links the stake’s potential value to expectations that Anthropic may pursue an IPO in the coming months, contingent on valuation and the company’s ability to scale profits and secure compute capacity.
