Do the "current stockholders" listed on that document need to file the SEC form 4 (insider disclosure) ? Or because this is technically pre-IPO they are exempt?
I would be curious to know who they are. But says something about this IPO. If I hold stock for what I think it's a good company, I wouldn't be selling on day 0

Why do their models always get Nerf'ed? Is Anthropic doing planned obsolescence or are they trying to encourage use of their latest models? Opus 5.5 was clearly Nerf'ed last week. I think they are at risk of getting a class action lawsuit for deceptive practices with this unannounced "model optimization" that actually changes performance as compared to the advertised performance in the official model cards.
