Why Anthropic's plan to go public could be a milestone for humankind | DW News

The firm behind the Claude chatbot wants to go public. And in a filing ahead of that, it has provided details about its structure, its mission and risks. It has warned that AI - if not controlled - could pose 'existential risks to humanity', while also promising AI could revolutionize the global economy and growth more than anything before it. So, how does one interpret what could be the largest stock market valuation in history from a company that controls technology that could benefit or destroy humankind? DW's Biresh Banerjee asks cyber security expert Prof. Dr. Dennis-Kenji Kipker.
