<p>(Reuters) -Amazon is considering another multibillion-dollar investment in AI firm Anthropic to strengthen their strategic partnership, the Financial Times reported on Thursday, citing people with knowledge of the talks.</p>
<p>The e-commerce giant has considered expanding its investment beyond the $8 billion already committed in November last year, the report said.</p>
<p>Anthropic declined to comment on the report and Amazon didn't immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. Reuters couldn't immediately verify the report.</p>
<p>Amazon pumped $4 billion into OpenAI competitor Anthropic in November last year in a bid to capitalize on the generative artificial intelligence technology. The move doubled Amazon's investment in the firm.</p>
<p>The investment under consideration will help Amazon retain its position as one of Anthropic's largest shareholders, ahead of Google which has invested over $3 billion, FT said.</p>
<p>"We quickly realised that we had many shared goals that were fundamentally critical. The size of the (existing investment) represents our ambition," Dan Grossman, vice-president of worldwide corporate development at Amazon told the newspaper.</p>
<p>Amazon is working to bolster its reputation in AI development, after rivals such as OpenAI and Google have taken an early lead, particularly with consumer-focused models.</p>
<p>Companies are also bolstering investments in AI and employing creative techniques to hire top AI talent.</p>
