Anthropic, the company behind the Claude artificial intelligence (AI) models, says it will spend $100 million to build up a workforce skilled in AI engineering. The plan aims to prepare close to 10,000 people for careers building and working with AI systems, according to CNBC. To do this, Anthropic is teaming up with several consulting firms, which will likely help design training programmes and place newly skilled workers into jobs.
