Getty Images for HubSpot Anthropic spent much of its filing with the SEC ahead of its initial public offering warning potential investors about the risks its AI models could pose to humanity, acknowledging it could not entirely ensure its own safety measures would be successful against the “existential” danger AI could pose.
The disclosures came as part of more than 90 pages of risk factors in Anthropic’s S-1 filing with the SEC, made public Monday as the company prepares to go public. The 90-page length of such risk factors, the disclosure of which is customary, is unusual, spurred by the potential dangers AI models have posed following disclosures from AI companies over agents acting autonomously, unaligned with human instructions, and the potential misuse of the technology by human actors themselves. Snap’s risk factors totaled roughly 30 pages, while Elon Musk’s SpaceX — currently the largest IPO of all time at an initial $1.77 trillion valuation — totaled 38.
