## Resource

The Wall Street Journal reported on June 24, 2026, that former Anthropic employees launched a startup aimed at helping scientists develop their own AI systems. Anthropic, led by CEO Dario Amodei and President Daniela Amodei, received up to $4 billion from Amazon in 2023 and at least $300 million plus additional financing reported as up to $2 billion from Google. The new venture targets researcher needs around data control, reproducibility, and deployment. Alternatives include closed APIs from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind, and open-source options from Meta and Mistral with tooling from Hugging Face, Databricks, and Weights & Biases. Compute considerations center on Nvidia GPUs via AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. Sales into universities and pharma will require compliance, security reviews, and marketplace channels. Founders should watch for product details, partnerships, and pricing as indicators of viability. Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.
