Currently we have several AI models, each with their own characteristics that make them exceptional. It seems that we have reached a point where they are somehow leveling their request processing power. Let's remember that what was presented as groundbreaking news was the number of parameters in that AI model. However, today we are facing models that exceed billions of parameters, which are necessary for the model to use stored data and combine, query, "reason" to build a coherent response in the given context.

Also in recent times we have witnessed how these models have competed in virtually all types of challenges that would be difficult for humans to overcome. These involve many fields of application, such as scientific, mathematical, and even various branches related to social interpretation. What has been achieved so far is impressive, but we are only at the beginning of what this technology can offer for the future. Additionally, we should note that this is not a passing technology; it will be the standard of this era.
At this point, one might wonder how these models are financed. What we can assert is that artificial intelligence is a magnet for investments because it represents a secure bet on the development of its technologies, which always move forward, making them more capable and efficient. As their technologies improve, large companies begin to want to be part of it, investing significant amounts of capital, whether for development purposes, for creating a new market, or for financial returns. The truth is that these investments now scale to an even larger budget, but this translates into an advantage over their competitors, as they will be able to afford any proposed innovation in the continuation of development.
Anthropic | Claude AI Model
Probably Claude is one of the AIs that are leaving many people around the world speechless. With three intelligence models such as: Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus, it presents us with a personal everyday use, but also available for emerging companies to start acquiring this technology. When it comes to investments, Anthropic is a major reference, that if the agreed funding round is met, the company may be valued at $60,000 million dollars.
The popularity that Claude has gained was on the rise. So much so that Google had made an initial investment of $400 million dollars, but by the end of 2023, this figure would end up approaching $2,000 million dollars. According to Financial Times, Anthropic has received a new investment of $1,000 million dollars from Google, in an attempt to strengthen its participation in the start-up. This at least is quite peculiar. Because in theory, Gemini and Claude are considered rivals, however, the potential of the latter could mean an advantage for Google in case they require support with an already created technology.
Another major company that has made investments is Amazon, which has carried out funding to the company for a value of $8,000 million dollars. This significant investment would enable the completion of the development and adaptation of the technology, focused on Alexa. What stands out at the moment is not precisely the processing power, but the inclusion of AI agents. These act through an intelligence model, with the detail that they will perform functions through certain interfaces, achieving task automation by understanding an environment.

What is coming up is truly amazing, and it is called "Computer Use," which is a feature that manages the chatbot Claude. In this way, tasks such as loading and consulting forms from a database could be done automatically. What is really clear is that we are heading towards computer automation itself, either through these AI agents or through applications that delve into its environment.
