Eric Schmidt reportedly owns about 1% of Anthropic after 2021 investment

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt is reported to own approximately 1% of AI startup Anthropic following his investment in the company's Series A round in 2021. At that time, Anthropic was valued at $461 million. If accurate, Schmidt's stake would be significantly larger than CEO Dario Amodei's 2% holding. With Anthropic expected to go public this year and potential valuation reaching $2 trillion, Schmidt's investment could add up to $20 billion to his current net worth of $57.5 billion.
