  "summary": "Major investors are expressing increasing skepticism regarding Anthropic's potential $1.5 trillion valuation following a recent market selloff. According to the Wall Street Journal, one investor suggested the valuation could be closer to $1 trillion. Investing.com reports that some investors view the $1.5 trillion figure as being at the high end of expectations, and the company may need to offer a larger discount to secure commitments.\n\nPotential investors have raised doubts about whether the artificial intelligence startup can proceed with its planned roadshow next week in time for a November listing, according to Investing.com and CNA - Business. These discussions are attributed to geopolitical uncertainty and the sharpest technology selloff in a year. Investors are reportedly mindful of Anthropic's need to raise capital due to its record of quarterly losses and significant commitments to partners in the AI buildout.",
