Rumors swirl as Anthropic eyes a potential acquisition of robotics startup Physical Intelligence, co-founded by investor Lachy Groom — talks reportedly active this spring. While early reports had some inaccuracies, behind-the-scenes activity is real. Physical Intelligence, backed by over $1 billion, powers cutting-edge robot brain tech used widely in research. CEO Karol Hausman casually dismissed rumors with a GIF — a telltale sign of internal calm. With both Anthropic and OpenAI racing toward IPOs and pouring into robotics, this move could be pivotal for AI’s physical-world mastery. OpenAI, which shuttered and then relaunched its robotics division, even holds an investment stake in Physical Intelligence — creating a tangled web where OpenAI might block Anthropic’s bid. The chess game is on, and all eyes are watching.
