Google will invest a minimum of $10 billion in Anthropic, with the potential to increase the investment to $40 billion if the AI startup meets specific performance benchmarks, according to a report by Bloomberg.

The announcement follows Amazon’s recent $5 billion initial investment in Anthropic, announced just days prior. Both deals place Anthropic’s valuation at approximately $350 billion.
