Anthropic has raised $30 billion in a Series G funding round, valuing the AI company at $380 billion post-money.
Jimmy Ba, co-founder of Elon Musk’s AI startup xAI, has left the company. Ba was one of the twelve original founding members and previously served as an assistant professor at the University of Toronto, where he studied under AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton.
It appears that Anthropic is beginning to feel the “OpenAI effect.” Growing commercialization and the need to raise billions of dollars are forcing the company into compromises—such as accepting funding from authoritarian regimes, cooperating with the U.S. Department of Defense and companies like Palantir, or even offering explicit praise for Donald Trump.
Mining company Cango has sold 4,451 BTC on the open market. The sale represented roughly 60% of the firm’s bitcoin reserves, which previously stood at 7,476 BTC.
