Amazon is reportedly considering a fresh multibillion-dollar investment in artificial intelligence startup Anthropic, according to the Financial Times. The move would deepen Amazon’s existing partnership with the company as it races to solidify its position in the competitive generative AI landscape.
This potential funding would build on Amazon’s previous $4 billion commitment to Anthropic, aimed at integrating its AI models—including Claude—into Amazon Web Services (AWS) offerings. Analysts view the deal as part of Amazon’s broader strategy to compete with Microsoft and Google, who have each aligned with their own AI partners, OpenAI and DeepMind, respectively.
If finalized, the additional investment would not only strengthen Amazon’s AI portfolio but also signal its intent to play a central role in shaping the next generation of cloud-based AI tools.
