Hold onto your hats, folks! It seems we’re in a race—no, not the kind where you worry about tripping over your own feet at family gatherings. I’m talking about the white-hot competition for tech superiority, with Anthropic throwing their hat into the IPO ring while giving OpenAI a side-eye.
According to some sources who probably have better insider info than your average gossip columnist, Anthropic has enlisted the legal eagle squad at Wilson Sonsini to help them navigate the choppy waters of going public—something that could happen faster than you can say “Silicon Valley.” Meanwhile, OpenAI is playing a little more coy, keeping their IPO plans on the down-low until at least the second half of 2026.
And if you thought this was a simple race to the stock market, think again! Anthropic has also dusted off their wallet and made their first acquisition, snagging software maker Bun. Because, you know, why not add some extra fuel to the competitive fire?
So, what’s next for these titans of tech? Will Anthropic pull into the lead, or will OpenAI come out swinging when it’s their turn? Tune in next time (or don’t—there are plenty of cat videos online) as we keep an eye on the drama unfolding in the aisles of AI!
