BlockBeats News, June 28th, OpenAI is considering delaying its initial public offering (IPO) to 2027 instead of the market's previous expectation of the fourth quarter of 2026. Reports indicate that OpenAI secretly submitted its S-1 filing in May this year but, influenced by the cooling of the tech stock market and the waning hype around the SpaceX IPO, the company is leaning towards slowing down its listing pace while still maintaining a valuation target of around $1 trillion.

Meanwhile, Anthropic completed a new round of financing in May, with a valuation of approximately $965 billion. The company has submitted a confidential S-1 filing, marking the first time its private valuation has exceeded that of OpenAI.

Reports also point out that the U.S. government is increasing its regulatory efforts on cutting-edge AI models. Previously, Anthropic's Mythos 5 and Fable 5 were temporarily suspended from export control. Mythos 5 has been approved to resume operations with around 100 U.S. critical infrastructure institutions, while Fable 5 has yet to come back online. Additionally, in response to the U.S. government's requirements, OpenAI is adopting a phased approach to releasing the GPT-5.6 model.

Analysts believe that as OpenAI and Anthropic move towards trillion-dollar valuations, the U.S. government is gradually becoming a significant player in shaping the release, deployment, and commercialization of cutting-edge AI models.
