The filing does not yet disclose Anthropic's expected IPO price or the number of shares it plans to sell, meaning it's not yet possible to put an exact dollar value on those holdings.

Here's our first take on the ANT s-1:
It pays to be a founder of Anthropic, and there are seven of them, all of whom soon stand to make tens of billions of dollars.

I'm on a midday flight from LA to NY, and it feels like we're on a red-eye.
It's been pitch-dark the whole time with all the windows closed and the lights off.
When did this become a thing?

The ultimate privilege of being a billionaire is being celebrated for doing a shitty job.
Caught @lucy_guo’s DJ set in Singapore last night, and honestly, it was one of the most amateur sets I’ve ever seen.
She barely seemed familiar with the equipment or even her own set. Beats were out of sync, cues were missed, and the whole thing felt under-rehearsed.
Yet the crowd was incredibly forgiving. Most people stuck around, until some just couldn’t take it anymore.
Money can't buy talent, but apparently it can buy applause.

Just had a delightful lunch with @phil_hellmuth on my way to SFO.
He chose the Cheesecake Factory.
Avocado egg rolls were eaten.
