According to the report from Wise Finance APP, Amazon (AMZN.US) is considering additional investment in the generative ai startup company Anthropic. Amazon previously invested 4 billion US dollars in Anthropic. The report cited sources familiar with the matter as saying that Amazon's second investment could reach billions of dollars, and this investment may require Anthropic to use servers powered by Amazon's ai chips.
It is reported that in November 2023, Amazon launched two ai-focused chips, Graviton 4 and Trainium 2. While Anthropic typically uses ai chips introduced by Nvidia (NVDA.US).
Reports from last month indicated that Anthropic is in negotiations with investors to raise additional funds, with the company valuation potentially close to 40 billion US dollars. Anthropic's competitor OpenAI announced a $6.6 billion financing round last month, with a company valuation of $157 billion.
