Amazon weighs further investment in Anthropic to deepen AI alliance
Amazon is considering a new multibillion-dollar investment in Anthropic to strengthen its position in the AI landscape.
Amazon is reportedly considering a new multibillion-dollar investment in Anthropic, building upon its existing $8 billion commitment. This move aims to bolster Amazon's competitive stance in AI, especially against Google's $3 billion stake in Anthropic and Microsoft's $14 billion investment in OpenAI. The partnership is significant for both companies, with Amazon serving as Anthropic's primary cloud and hardware partner through Project Rainier—a large data center initiative utilizing Trainium2 chips. Anthropic, valued at $61.5 billion, was founded in 2021 by former OpenAI staff and now produces Claude AI models integrated into Amazon services like Alexa+ and Prime Video.
