Amazon plans to invest up to $25 billion in Anthropic as part of a long-term agreement that will see the AI company spend more than $100 billion on Amazon’s cloud services.
The deal strengthens their partnership as Anthropic scales its AI models using Amazon’s infrastructure and Trainium chips.
Amazon will invest $5 billion upfront, with more tied to milestones, adding to its earlier $8 billion stake. The move comes as Amazon ramps up AI spending and competes with other tech giants, including its separate investment plans in OpenAI.
Shares rose after the announcement, signaling investor confidence in its expanding AI strategy.
