$170 Billion. And still n$170 Billion. For a company that doesn't even have an app store yet. Anthropic is reportedly closing a $5B funding round led by Iconiq Capital, pushing its valuation to $170B—almost equal to Zoom + Adobe + Shopify combined. Even more telling: They’re now open to sovereign wealth funds—despite earlier resistance to such capital due to ethical concerns. The shift is clear: Money is consolidating fast in a handful of AI labs. Funding ethics are becoming a luxury few can afford. And open-source players? They're outmuscled, not outbuilt. For founders and investors, this raises hard questions: Are we funding infrastructure or ideology? Can early-stage AI companies survive this gravity well? Is this good for innovation—or just good for Anthropic? Would love to hear where you stand on this. Is this the future of AI, or a dangerous centralization of power? #AI #Anthropic #VentureCapital #StartupFunding #Founders #Build3 #SovereignWealth #OpenSourceAI #IconiqCapitalo public roadmap.
