Highlighted: the sentence this signal was extracted from

The share arrangement reverses a more familiar pattern in AI infrastructure deals, where chipmakers and cloud providers invest in the AI companies that buy their products. Anthropic has already entered similar relationships with Amazon, Google, Microsoft and AMD, which have invested or agreed to invest in the company while supplying computing capacity or chips. AMD used a comparable warrant structure with OpenAI last year, tying potential share rights to chip-purchase milestones. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei previously told The New York Times that his company does not participate in such arrangements at the same scale as some other AI players. The bigger picture: Anthropic's Akamai agreement shows how AI infrastructure spending is expanding into cloud capacity, CPUs and long-term supply commitments. For Akamai, it offers a potential multibillion-dollar revenue stream, while Anthropic gets access to computing resources and a possible ownership stake in its supplier.
