🤖 Anthropic’s IPO could create thousands of millionaires before the company even goes public

A potential Anthropic IPO could turn thousands of employees into millionaires, according to estimates circulating around the company’s expected public offering.

The projections suggest seven co-founders could become billionaires, around 50 early employees could hold more than $100 million each, and roughly 4,200 employees could end up with seven-figure fortunes or more.

But the wealth comes with a potential dilemma. CEO Dario Amodei has warned that enormous financial incentives could distract employees from Anthropic’s AI safety mission.

The company has even reportedly asked candidates how they would feel if Anthropic abandoned AI development for safety reasons and its stock became worthless.
