This move highlights Google's efforts to compete with Microsoft, a major supporter of OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT.


The investment by Google comes as part of a larger trend among tech giants to incorporate AI into their applications. Amazon.com recently announced its plan to invest up to $4 billion in Anthropic, aiming to rival other cloud providers in the AI space.


Anthropic, co-founded by former executives of OpenAI, Dario and Daniela Amodei, has been actively seeking resources and influential backers to establish itself as a leader in the technology sector. The company's ambition to compete with OpenAI has attracted the attention of major players in the industry.
