Amazon announced on Monday up to $4 billion of investment in American artificial intelligence (AI) company Anthropic, which is developing a competitor to ChatGPT, accelerating the global race towards these technologies.
With this partnership, the online commerce and “cloud” (remotely accessible data hosting) giant will take a minority stake in Anthropic, which developed Claude, a chatbot competing with ChatGPT, the artificial intelligence tool popular Open AI.
For its part, Anthropic will use chips from Amazon Web Service (AWS) – the largest “cloud” company in the world – developed specifically for creating machine learning models.
The key to this agreement, according to Amazon, is the acceleration of Anthropic’s future chatbot models, to which AWS users will have access.
So-called “generative” artificial intelligence, capable of generating new content from learning data, is whetting the appetites of internet giants. A few days ago, Amazon announced that its virtual assistant Alexa would be equipped with AI.
Microsoft, for its part, indicated last Thursday that it would integrate OpenAI’s new generative artificial intelligence interface into its Bing search engine.
