What Amazon's up to $4B commitment to Anthropic could mean for AI space
Amazon (AMZN) has made an investment in the AI firm Anthropic, announcing their willingness to commit up to $4 billion this morning.

First, stocks have been steadily sliding since last Wednesday, when the Federal Reserve projected that interest rates would stay high.
