The investment—worth $300 million—gives Google a 10% stake in the company and can value Anthropic at approximately $5 billion. The collaboration between the two companies has been hinted at, as Anthropic announced in January that it had chosen Google Cloud as its preferred cloud provider.

Founded by former OpenAI sibling duo in 2021, Anthropic raised $580 million in Series B funding round led by Sam Bankman-Fried, former chief executive at FTX—and now a suspected fraudster—among others.
‘Claude’ is a large language model assistant which is claimed to give tough competition to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
The company is focused on understanding and developing safe AI systems, utilising a unique approach known as “constitutional AI”.
With a goal of responsibly scaling AI technology, Anthropic is making progress in reverse engineering the behaviour of small language models and understanding the logic behind the pattern-matching behaviour in larger language models.
