The AI IPO tsunami on the stock market has only recently gotten under way, with SpaceX’s more-than-$2 trillion IPO likely to be followed in several months by OpenAI’s and Anthropic’s IPOs — each of which is likely to hit $1 trillion.
That will mint three new trillion-dollar AI companies in a matter of months, all of which compete with Microsoft.
Wall Street has never seen anything like it. Previously, the most money raised by all IPOs in a single year was $671 billion in 2021. It took 38,644 deals to get to that figure. Compare that to three deals this year that by themselves will likely total $4 trillion.
The numbers are eye-popping.
For Microsoft though, it’s not the numbers themselves that are important. It’s what will happen to the company once it as three newly minted trillion-dollar AI competitors. Until recently, when it came to AI, Microsoft was king of the hill. But can it keep that place?

The US government decision to force Anthropic to close down its latest and greatest AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, was only the next step in a burgeoning battle between AI providers and ignorant politicians.
Anthropic was on top of the world. Its Mythos 5 LLM had everyone excited. (If you believe the hype, it was kind of scary, too.) Even Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei admitted — or boasted? — that Mythos would bring an “enormous increase in the amount of vulnerabilities, in the amount of breaches” to us all. But with that fear came the promise of more AI power than ever.
Then, the roof caved in.
On June 12, the US Commerce Department used its export-control powers to demand that Anthropic cut off access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models for all foreign nationals, citing national security concerns and fears of jailbreaks. After figuring out it had no way to do that, Anthropic pulled both of its newest frontier AI models offline worldwide.
Just what an AI company needs! All other Claud
In the past year, the enterprise AI ecosystem has gained enormous capability and zero consensus.
Developers now have a remarkable set of tools for building AI agents: OpenAI’s frameworks, Anthropic’s Claude tooling, LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, Microsoft AutoGen, and a growing list of alternatives. Each promises to coordinate reasoning loops, manage multi-step task execution, and connect agents to tools and APIs. For experimentation, the progress has been substantial. Teams can now assemble sophisticated agent workflows in days that would have taken months two years ago.
But I’ve watched this pattern before. In over two decades of building and selling distributed systems platforms, I’ve seen the same dynamic play out across nearly every major infrastructure shift: the tools for consuming a new capability arrive before the infrastructure for governing it does. The gap that emerges isn’t immediately obvious in development environments. It becomes obvious in production.
That’s exactly wh
