Amazon is considering further investment in Anthropic, solidifying their alliance in the AI space. This move aims to strengthen their position against the Microsoft-OpenAI partnership. Amazon's commitment includes utilising AWS Trainium and Inferentia chips for building, training, and deploying future models. Anthropic will leverage Amazon Bedrock, providing customers access to advanced foundation models.
Through this collaboration, organisations gain access to Anthropic's models and Amazon Bedrock capabilities. Anthropic is working with Annapurna Labs at AWS to optimise Trainium accelerators, enhancing machine learning hardware. This partnership enables the development of low-level kernels and contributions to the AWS Neuron software stack.
Claude, Anthropic's flagship model, is now core infrastructure for numerous companies via Amazon Bedrock. Companies like Pfizer and Intuit are already leveraging Claude to accelerate research, improve efficiency, and reduce operational costs. This deepened alliance signifies a strategic move by Amazon to control its AI destiny and challenge Nvidia's market dominance.
