Anthropic and SpaceX AI deal

Anthropic has secured a significant partnership with Elon Musk's SpaceX to utilize the massive computing power of the Colossus 1 data center.

This agreement provides Anthropic with access to over 220,000 Nvidia H100 chips, addressing the startup's urgent need for compute capacity as usage of its Claude AI models surges.

CEO Dario Amodei noted that the company's revenue has grown 80-fold in the first quarter, making the acquisition of high-end hardware a critical priority.

The deal marks a notable collaboration between the two firms, especially given Musk's previous public criticisms of Anthropic's leadership.
