Under the partnership, GMO Internet Group will integrate Anthropic’s AI into its cybersecurity services, including through the enhancement of “Takumi byGMO,” and advance physical AI applications through its AI and robotics business. The Group will also deploy Claude Enterprise across its companies to establish a secure AI infrastructure and improve operational efficiency.
