The plan, which has not been finalized, involves Google providing cloud computing services to Anthropic, according to the people, who asked not to be named because the information is private. Google is a previous investor in, and cloud provider for, Anthropic. Anthropic and Google declined to comment. Google shares jumped more than 3.5% in extended trading, while Amazon, also an Anthropic investor and cloud provider, slipped about 2%. Anthropic recently held early funding talks with Abu Dhabi-based investment firm MGX, about a month after closing a $13 billion funding round.
