The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday that three major investors who plan to participate in the IPO said Anthropic is unlikely to achieve the expected valuation of $1.5 trillion after Thursday’s selloff. One said the valuation could be closer to $1 trillion, per the report. The report did not name the investors.
