Anthropic, the creator of the Claude AI system, announced that it will add an invisible watermark to all AI‑generated text from its upcoming Claude models for the European market, meeting a specific requirement of the EU AI Act that mandates model makers to provide traceability of AI‑generated content.
Anthropic is raising $30 billion at a $900 billion valuation, surpassing OpenAI. The round is led by Dragoneer, Greenoaks, Sequoia Capital, and Altimeter Capital, each investing at least $2 billion. This comes three months after a previous $30 billion round at $350 billion valuation. Anthropic’s revenue is projected to reach $45 billion this year, five times higher than last year’s $9 billion, driven by the success of Claude and its new capabilities like Claude Cowork. The company continues to face scrutiny from European regulators regarding access to its latest Claude Mythos model.
