United States prosecutors have requested the court presiding over Sam Bankman-Fried’s trial to bar his legal team from making any arguments relating to the potential recovery of FTX customer assets invested in Anthropic.
Bankman-Fried invested $500 million in the artificial intelligence startup in April 2022; however, the U.S. government is set to present evidence that the Anthropic investment was made using misappropriated funds from FTX customer deposits.
