This will enable all of the Amazon operating divisions to take advantage of AWS’s high-performance, low-cost machine learning accelerators. Amazon already collaborates with Anthropic to develop reliable generative AI models that will allow AWS customers to do things like automate common tasks. Anthropic is an AI safety and research company based in San Francisco and one of the world’s leading foundation model providers.

Its interdisciplinary team has deep experience across machine-learning, physics, policy, and product. They create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. Its flagship product is Claude, an AI assistant focused on being helpful, and honest.

It is an advocate for the responsible deployment of generative AI. Anthropic will now deepens its commitment to AWS, making its future foundation models accessible to millions of developers and providing AWS customers early access to unique features for model customization. The process will use proprietary data, and fine-tuning capabilities, all through Amazon Bedrock.

Anthropic will use AWS as its primary cloud provider and AWS custom chips to build, train, and deploy its future foundation models. This collaboration will help transform other businesses and build towards a safer, better future for generative AI. With this collaboration, AWS customers will be able to build upon and customize Anthropic’s foundation models – like the Claude API – to create new applications and transform their businesses, from automating tasks to creating personalized customer content.

For example, with the help of Claude, Lonely Planet was able to deliver highly accurate travel recommendations while reducing the costs by 80%.

They come in prescription, sunglasses, and blue-light lens-options to seamlessly integrate into the wearer’s daily life. “We are excited to use AWS’s Trainium chips and develop future foundation models,” said Dario Amodei, co-founder and CEO of Anthropic.

“Since announcing our support of Amazon Bedrock in April, Claude has seen significant organic adoption from AWS customers. By significantly expanding our partnership, we can unlock new possibilities for organizations of all sizes, as they display Anthropic’s safe, state of the art AI systems together with AWS’s leading cloud technology. ” Andy Jassy, Amazon’s CEO, added: “We have tremendous respect for Anthropic’s team and foundation models and believe we can help improve many customer experiences, short and long-term, through our deeper collaboration.

Customers are quite excited about Amazon’s Bedrock, AWS’s new managed service that enables companies to use various foundation models to build generative AI applications. On top of that, Trainium AWS’s training chip and our collaboration with Anthropic should help customers get even more value. POSTSCRIPT: Management talks about Anthropic’s flagship Claude as if it is a human being.

The partnership with Amazon is valuable and strengthens Anthropic for the future. AI has come into our lives and will stay here, so the development of a safe, secure, and honest product is welcomed and will be cherished. The partnership will be fruitful and successful.
