What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Analysts suggest that powerful artificial intelligence models will increase cyber threats throughout 2027, prompting companies to increase their cybersecurity budgets, according to Scotiabank. Gartner predicts that future security incidents will be linked to the use of AI, noting that AI inference attacks challenge enterprise data security models. Meanwhile, Anthropic is facing scrutiny over its planned IPO, with some financial advisors cautioning that a valuation north of $2-trillion is a bold assumption given Wall Street's patience for high AI multiples.
