According to a Reuters report cited by Global Times on September 21, sources say Anthropic is considering launching a new AI model to counter the strong momentum of OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra, which was released this month and has gained significant enterprise traction. The potential release aims to address competitive pressure that has led some investors to reassess Anthropic's position as a leading enterprise AI tool provider. This comes after Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for the global AI community to slow the pace of new feature releases to address safety concerns, writing that 'we must slow down the pace of improving AI model capabilities.' A source familiar with the matter said Anthropic is evaluating the safety of its next-generation model, with internal discussions balancing resource allocation between developing new models and improving profitability. Anthropic is also expected to pursue an IPO.
