Deep Tide TechFlow news. On April 21, according to Nikkei Asia, Amazon announced it would add an additional investment of up to $25 billion in Claude’s parent company, Anthropic, including $5 billion made available immediately, and another $20 billion to be injected in batches depending on whether business milestones are met. Previously, Amazon had already invested a cumulative $8 billion in Anthropic; once this round is completed, the total investment will reach $33 billion.

In exchange, Anthropic has pledged to spend more than $100 billion on Amazon Web Services (AWS) over the next 10 years, and plans to deploy about 1 gigawatt of computing power by the end of the year through the Trainium2 and Trainium3 chips, with a long-term target of 5 gigawatts. After the news was released, Amazon’s after-hours stock price rose by about 2.7%. It is worth noting that earlier this year, Amazon also announced it would invest up to $50 billion in OpenAI, indicating that it is simultaneously backing multiple leading AI companies to solidify its leading position in cloud infrastructure.
