Anthropic was the first to file documents with US regulators in early June. OpenAI plans to go public in autumn 2026 with a potential valuation of around $1 trillion. Conflicts between the CEOs of both companies are reflected in their development strategies and financial policies.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<div class=\"summary-title\">Briefly about the main points<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Anthropic was the first to file for an IPO in June 2026.<\/li>\n<li>OpenAI is planning an IPO with a valuation of around $1 trillion in autumn 2026.<\/li>\n<li>CEO Sam Altman and Dario Amodi are at odds, which is affecting the development of AI.<\/li>\n<li>The IPOs of both companies are being handled by the same banks, which is complicating the process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The start of competition for IPOs in the artificial intelligence sector<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/science-tech\/anthropic-borotba-z-ekstremizmom\/\">Anthropic<\/a> announced that it would file a confidential IPO application in early June 2026, ahead of <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/science-tech\/openai-launches-chatgpt-health-mode\/\">OpenAI<\/a>, which did so a week later. OpenAI plans to go public with a valuation of around $1\u20134 trillion, highlighting the scale of the competition for investment and influence in the AI sector. Both companies are engaging the same banks, which are forced to erect internal barriers to prevent information leaks.<\/p>\n<h2>A CEO\u2019s personal conflicts as a driver of innovation and tension<\/h2>\n<p>CEO of OpenAI <strong>Altman himself<\/strong> and CEO of Anthropic <strong>Dario Amodi<\/strong>, a former OpenAI researcher, have a tense relationship that is affecting the pace of product releases and the companies\u201c strategies. Anastasios Angelopoulos, CEO of Arena, described their rivalry as an \u201dall-out war\u201d that drives the constant updating of AI models. At the same time, these conflicts complicate interaction and collaboration within the market.<\/p>\n<h2>Financial disagreements between Anthropic and OpenAI<\/h2>\n<p>OpenAI has criticised Anthropic\u2019s revenue recognition methodology, arguing that the latter inflates its figures by reporting gross revenue rather than net revenue after payments to partners such as Amazon and Google. Anthropic argues that it is acting in accordance with established accounting practices, recognising itself as the \u201cprincipal\u201d in transactions. These differences are intensifying competition in the run-up to the IPO and affecting investors\u2019 perceptions of the companies.<\/p>\n<h2>The impact of competition on the development of AI and the market<\/h2>\n<p>The rivalry between the two companies accelerated revolutionary development <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/analitika\/bezkoshtovni-neiromerezhi-dlia-kontentu\/\">chatbots<\/a> and other AI products. Following the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, Anthropic focused on security and business clients, but in 2025 it released the Claude Code update, which prompted OpenAI to step up its efforts in the corporate sector. This dynamic development is shaping the future of AI applications worldwide.<\/p>\n<h2>Challenges within OpenAI\u2019s internal management<\/h2>\n<p>There were disagreements at OpenAI regarding the timing of the IPO, particularly between Altman and the CFO <strong>Sarah Fryer<\/strong>. Despite this, the management stated that there was a consensus on going public. Altman himself expressed a reluctance to rush the company\u2019s debut on the public markets.<\/p>\n<h2>Publicity and the political context of the conflict<\/h2>\n<p>The strained relations between the companies\u2019 leadership became public: in February 2026, Altman criticised Anthropic\u2019s Super Bowl advert, whilst Amodi accused OpenAI of exploiting the dispute with the Pentagon to its own advantage. Even at international forums, such as the AI Summit in India, calls for unity proved fruitless due to the depth of the conflict.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anthropic \u0456 OpenAI \u0432\u0435\u0434\u0443\u0442\u044c \u0433\u043e\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0443 \u0431\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0442\u044c\u0431\u0443 \u0437\u0430 \u043b\u0456\u0434\u0435\u0440\u0441\u0442\u0432\u043e \u0432 \u0456\u043d\u0434\u0443\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0456\u0457 \u0448\u0442\u0443\u0447\u043d\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0456\u043d\u0442\u0435\u043b\u0435\u043a\u0442\u0443, \u0437\u043c\u0430\u0433\u0430\u044e\u0447\u0438\u0441\u044c \u0437\u0430 \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0448\u0456\u0441\u0442\u044c \u0443 \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0432\u0435\u0434\u0435\u043d\u043d\u0456 IPO.
