Anthropic aims for over 3.5 gigawatts of computing capacity with Google's TPUs (heise.de)

• 3.5 GW compute capacity powered by Google TPUs
• Broadcom commitment ensures accelerator roadmap until 2031
• Strategic shift toward custom hardware for large-scale AI

"Anthropic is expanding its AI compute capacity to 3.5 gigawatts, utilizing Google's Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) as its core hardware infrastructure. The partnership is bolstered by a long-term agreement with Broadcom, ensuring development support for next-generation accelerators through at least 2031. This move signals a significant push toward specialized hardware stacks to bypass general-purpose GPU supply bottlenecks and optimize large-scale model training environments."
