Five weird details from Anthropic’s IPO filing

Anthropic’s S-1 filing discloses that CEO Dario Amodei received nearly $18 million in total compensation last year and President Daniela Amodei $16.4 million, plus millions spent on personal security and a private jet for Dario. The filing also lists unconventional risk factors, including potentially "catastrophic" AI harm and the possibility of AI systems possessing "forms of sentience," and details compute commitments such as roughly $3.1 billion per month to SpaceX for Nvidia GPUs, up to $120.5 billion by 2029. A "Founder LLC" will give the seven cofounders 50.1 percent of shareholder voting power on key matters, and Anthropic names only OpenAI and Google as direct competitors.
