Amazon is investing $5 billion in Anthropic, with up to an additional $20 billion in the future. This builds on the $8 billion it has previously invested.

The company said the agreement expands collaboration, and is committing more than $100 billion over the next ten years to AWS technologies, securing up to 5GW of new capacity to train and run Claude.
