Anthropic seeks to reduce cloud provider reliance through data center expansion

Anthropic (Anthropic) is in early discussions to lease up to 1 gigawatt of computing capacity from a data center developer majority-owned by Apollo Global Management. The AI firm aims to reduce its dependence on cloud service providers by acting as a direct tenant at facilities developed by Stream Data Centers, where it plans to deploy TPUs designed by Broadcom and Google. The project may involve credit guarantees from Google.
