The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) announced its intention to probe Amazon’s significant investment in AI firm Anthropic, as well as Microsoft’s collaborations with Mistral AI and OpenAI. The CMA is seeking to ensure these deals adhere to UK competition laws and examine their potential effects on market competition.
Joel Bamford, as the head of the CMA’s union, underscored the importance of fair evaluation to ensure a level playing field in the artificial intelligence industry.
Based on the CMA’s previous discoveries, large tech companies appear to be increasingly investing in AI projects. This could result in them influencing market directions and amassing more power. The CMA is mindful of past errors that allowed powerful platforms to emerge.
Microsoft’s CEO, Satya Nadellas, views collaborations like the one with OpenAI as fostering healthy competition. However, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) continues to prioritize maintaining a level playing field in the AI sector.
