[Public Welfare or Publicity Stunt? Anthropic Plans to Donate 320 Billion RMB in Equity Before IPO] On October 18, Anthropic announced the establishment of a Public Benefit Fund, planning to allocate 5% of the company’s shares to this fund. The fund will be used to support public welfare organizations and help groups affected by AI, among other causes. Based on the company’s $96.5 billion valuation during its fundraising in May this year, this equity is worth $4.825 billion, equivalent to about 320 billion RMB. If the company’s valuation reaches the previously anticipated $2 trillion after going public, the value would soar to an astonishing $10 billion.

Report: OpenAI plans to accelerate fundraising before Anthropic goes public

OpenAI is racing against time—in order to secure funding ahead of rival Anthropic’s IPO, the company has significantly compressed its fundraising timeline, aiming to complete approximately $30 billion in private financing, which could push its valuation past $1.4 trillion upon completion. Major investors such as SoftBank and MGX are already engaged in discussions. Both AI giants are targeting trillion-dollar valuations, and their largely overlapping investor bases are being forced to make simultaneous bets on both ventures within just a few days.
