AI funding is rapidly drying up, causing a desperate rush among companies to go public before the market closes. Anthropic, potentially valued at $2 trillion, stands as the last major AI IPO candidate in 2026 amid a collapsing industry. Despite strong revenue growth and claims of profitability, Anthropic faces challenges including a complex ownership trust and a tough market environment. Other AI firms are unlikely to IPO this year as funding tightens and investor optimism fades.
