Anthropic has filed an amended IPO prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission that includes its third-quarter financials. The filing shows revenue of $16.96 billion for the three months ended September 30, up from $11.56 billion in the second quarter, and a net loss of $23.29 billion, down from $66.3 billion. It also shows compute and infrastructure commitments of about $895 billion. The company filed to go public last week in what could be the biggest IPO on record. Some current and prospective investors are reported to value Anthropic at about $1.5 trillion, down from roughly $2 trillion.
