PALO ALTO, California -- Anthropic will open its first Asian office in Tokyo as early as this autumn, it was learned Tuesday, as the American venture behind ChatGPT rival Claude aims to capture Japanese demand for labor-saving technology amid a shortage of workers.
Anthropic has offices in London and elsewhere. The choice of Japan to spearhead its Asian expansion was informed by the country's promising market for artificial intelligence services.
