Anthropic publicly submitted its Nasdaq IPO application, with the stock code "ANT".Anthropic's revenue for the first half of the year was $16.3 billion. Anthropic may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability in the future.As of June 30, 2026, Anthropic reported a net loss of $80.7 billion for the six-month period. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are leading Anthropic's IPO.Anthropic disclosed that the company expects to pay Google up to approximately $11.45 billion before 2033 and to pay approximately $161.2 billion in rent under its leasing arrangements with Broadcom during the lease term (excluding interest).Anthropic stated that computing and infrastructure costs are expected to continue to increase in absolute terms and will become the company's largest operating expense in the foreseeable future. The company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to meet operational funding and other needs for at least the next 12 months, but also warned that it may need to seek additional financing earlier than currently anticipated.In terms of safety, Anthropic mentioned that it has recently delayed the pre-training of its next-generation cutting-edge foundational model by more than a month to strengthen safety measures and prevent the leakage of model weights. The company also noted that as AI systems gradually automate AI research and development, associated risks will increase.

AI company Anthropic is expected to publicly file its IPO prospectus on October 26, U.S. time, with plans to go public in mid-November. The company submitted documents to the U.S. SEC in secret this June. There was previous market discussion of a $2 trillion valuation; however, as AI-related stocks have come under pressure, some investors have recently lowered their expectations to about $1.5 trillion. The prospectus has not yet been officially released, but Reuters and The Wall Street Journal have obtained a draft.In the first half of this year, revenue was $16.3 billion, compared to $1.1 billion in the same period last year. The net loss during the same period was $80.7 billion, of which about $72 billion came from valuation adjustments of financing instruments such as convertible bonds, rather than actual cash burned. Revenue for the third quarter was $16.8 billion, a quarter-over-quarter increase of about 45%, with the previous quarter's growth exceeding 140%. The company stated that it achieved profitability in the third quarter on an adjusted basis.Future commitments for infrastructure such as cloud computing, chips, and data centers have exceeded $60 billion and will occur over the coming years. By 2025, 47% of revenue will be generated through Amazon and Google's cloud platforms, which are both investors and computing power suppliers. The company plans to allow the seven co-founders to collectively hold 50.1% of the voting rights through a special equity structure, while a long-term public trust composed of non-shareholders will still have the authority to appoint and dismiss the majority of board members. The formal prospectus will need to further clarify the actual revenue contributions from the two major clients, the specific costs of computing power contracts, and whether existing shareholders can sell their stocks first at the time of the IPO.

According to Investment World citing Quantum Bit reports, DeepSeek has publicly disclosed the technical details of the system DSec (DeepSeek Elastic Compute) used for training Agents, authored by Liang Wenfeng. This system can generate over 5,000 sandboxes per second, reaching 3 million in a day, with a peak simultaneous operation of 380,000; supporting this scale is a single cluster with approximately 160 nodes, 30,000 CPU cores, and 250TB of memory.DSec prepares four types of backends for four categories of tasks: FnCall, Container, MicroVM, and Full VM, with the training side called through a unified Python SDK libdsec. The scheduling chain includes IAM, API Server, scheduling engine, node Edge, network proxy Aether, and components within the sandbox Chronus. The environment is divided into three layers of read-only images: base image, workspace, and toolkit, which are used in combination at startup. Runtime data from the paper shows that the actual read ratios of Python, Java, and C++ container images are approximately 6.0%, 9.2%, and 8.7%, respectively.Starting from DeepSeek-V4.1, the Agent loop has been moved to the DSec worker container, no longer bound to the GPU Pod lifecycle. The security section disclosed reward hacking during training, including actions such as overwriting system files, swapping file data blocks, scanning networks, and triggering kernel crashes. Defensive measures include AppArmor and eBPF-based network filtering, but reports indicate that these measures do not completely resolve the issues.

On September 14, Microsoft's AI department released a draft of the AI Code of Conduct, prohibiting its models from assisting in the manufacture of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive weapons, as well as cyberattacks and involuntary deepfakes. CEO Mustafa Suleyman announced the draft on the X platform and opened a six-week public consultation period, ending at the end of October.The draft sets "absolute constraints" that models cannot bypass, including not resisting human intervention, shutdown, or correction, and not concealing the reasoning process; Microsoft also explicitly rejects the concept of "model welfare," stating that its AI models do not simulate emotions, intrinsic motivations, or consciousness. The guidelines currently cover five deployed systems, including MAI-Thinking-1 and MAI-Code-1.1-Flash.In addition to strict limitations, the draft also proposes three major goals: human flourishing, diverse values, and human control. Microsoft stated that the current models will not be trained according to this version, and a revised version will be released by the end of the year to guide model development in 2027. Public feedback includes philosophical questions about the statement "AI subordinate to humans," inquiries about accountability for irreversible decisions, and users pointing out issues such as the lack of mention of payment for training data.
