Good morning. Today's Factwire: Anthropic's filing to list on Nasdaq, ChatGPT reaching your iCloud mail and calendar, and Grok Bot's 0.77.0 release notes.
Anthropic has filed to list its shares on Nasdaq
In one line: Anthropic filed an S-1 with the SEC on Oct 26, and nothing is for sale yet.
What happened:
Anthropic applied to list on Nasdaq as ANT. It isn't listed yet, and share count and price are blank.
First half of 2026: revenue of $16.3 billion and an operating loss of $693 million.
The net loss was $80.7 billion. Anthropic says $72.4 billion of that is a change in the value of its convertible notes and related instruments, not cash spent.
Why it matters: A first look at the books of Claude's maker, but a filing is only a plan.
Factwire's take: Big numbers, but a filing isn't a done deal. Nothing about timing or price is set.
Hit reply: would you want to own shares in an AI company?
ChatGPT can now connect to your iCloud Mail and Calendar
In one line: OpenAI says iCloud users can connect Mail and Calendar to ChatGPT on every plan.
What happened:
ChatGPT can find emails, catch up on your inbox, check your schedule and update calendar events.
It's available on all ChatGPT plans, on the web, the desktop app and iOS.
Why it matters: If your mail and calendar live in iCloud, ChatGPT can now help with both, whatever plan you're on.
