Anthropic seeks billions of dollars in cloud service support

Jinse Finance reported that, according to sources, artificial intelligence company Anthropic is in talks with Google (GOOG.O) regarding a deal that would provide Anthropic with additional computing power worth tens of billions of dollars. The sources said that this plan, which has not yet been finalized, involves Google providing Anthropic with cloud computing services. Google has previously been both an investor in and a cloud service provider for Anthropic. The negotiations are still at an early stage and details may change. Like its peers, Anthropic has been raising large amounts of capital to keep pace with the AI race. Industry insiders say that the R&D breakthroughs and consumer demand driving advances in artificial intelligence will require more resource investment. About a month after completing a $13 billion funding round, Anthropic has also recently held early-stage financing talks with Abu Dhabi investment company MGX.
