Shares of International Business Machines (IBM) rose to a record high on Tuesday following the company’s announcement of a new partnership with Artificial Intelligence startup Anthropic AI. The collaboration aims to expand the use of generative AI among business clients by integrating Anthropic’s technology into IBM’s products.
The company stated that Anthropic’s Claude large language models will be included in IBM’s software portfolio, beginning with its integrated development environment for software developers. Dinesh Nirmal, Senior Vice President of Software at IBM, said in a statement, “IBM has been the backbone of enterprise technology for decades because we understand what it takes to deploy at scale in mission-critical environments.” Nirmal added that this partnership strengthens IBM’s software with advanced AI, while upholding the governance, security, and reliability required by enterprise clients. He also stated, “We’re giving development teams AI that fits how enterprises work not experimental tools that create new risks.”
IBM made additional announcements on Tuesday, just ahead of its annual TechXchange developer conference. The company highlighted its Watsonx Orchestrate platform, which now includes over 500 tools to help organizations deploy customized AI agents.
The company’s shares have surged 33.7% since the beginning of the year, including an 18% increase in the past month. Earlier this year, IBM shared plans for a large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computer at its New York data center, aiming to deliver it before 2030.
Analysts say IBM stock has performed better than most forecasts and has outpaced the S&P 500 index throughout 2024. According to CNN, if strong investor sentiment remains, IBM shares could rise an additional 18.8% to $350. For more on Netflix (NFLX) stock upgrades, see this analysis.
