Anthropic looks to secure more data centre capacity: Report

Anthropic, the maker of the Claude AI model, is reportedly in the early stages of negotiations to secure additional data center capacity, according to a recent report. The company is seeking up to 1 gigawatt of power from Stream Data Centers, as indicated by a source from The Information. Anthropic, which is majority-owned by Apollo Global Management, has already signed over 12 preliminary agreements to lease more than 1 gigawatt of U.S. data center capacity.

Efforts to secure financial backing from Google are also underway, with the aim of covering lease payments. However, Anthropic has yet to confirm or refute these reports.
