AI start-up Anthropic open to Mideast funds in talks to double valuation to over $150bn

Artificial intelligence start-up Anthropic is in early talks to more than double its valuation to more than $150bn in a new funding round, giving it additional firepower to keep pace with rivals building advanced AI models.

The competitor to Sam Altman’s OpenAI was in the preliminary stages of funding discussions with investors and had received interest from backers willing to value the business at more than $150bn, a massive jump from Anthropic’s current $61.5bn price tag, according to four people with knowledge of the matter.
