Amazon’s $190 billion Anthropic stake linked to Sam Bankman-Fried

Amazon's $190 billion investment in Anthropic has ties to Sam Bankman-Fried, who previously invested in the AI firm using FTX customer funds. Additionally, METR, an AI safety evaluator that works with Amazon and Anthropic, received funding from Bankman-Fried's FTX Foundation before returning the donation in 2024.
