April 24, 2026 at 3:50 PM UTCGoogle will invest $10 billion in Anthropic PBC, with another $30 billion potentially to follow, strengthening the relationship between two companies that are at once partners and rivals in the race to build artificial intelligence.Anthropic said that Google is committing to invest $10 billion now in cash at a $350 billion valuation, the same amount it was valued at in a funding round in February, not including the recent money raised. The Alphabet Inc.-owned company will invest another $30 billion if Anthropic hits performance targets, the startup said Friday, and support a significant expansion of Anthropic’s computing capacity.
