Fabio Panetta, a member of the European Central Bank’s Executive Board, has expressed concerns regarding the current valuations of artificial intelligence companies. In an interview with Bloomberg Economics, he warned that overly optimistic market expectations could lead to a significant correction in the sector.
The market sentiment is increasingly cautious, as reflected in prediction markets for Anthropic. The probability of the company reaching a valuation of $600 billion by December 31 is currently estimated at 1.8%. This figure indicates a low level of confidence among market participants regarding such high valuation thresholds.
Panetta’s warnings align with a broader trend of skepticism among financial analysts and experts concerning the rapid growth of AI company valuations. Market pricing currently incorporates a notable risk of correction, as investors and regulators continue to monitor the sustainability of the sector's development.
