  "account": "Anthropic has secured a $3.4 billion deal to purchase gas-fired power generators for its data centers, according to the Financial Times. The AI company acquired commitments for 1.7 gigawatts of heavy-duty generators from OnePWR Solutions, a Texas-based equipment supplier, in late September. While Anthropic did not take over OnePWR or its employees, the agreement included necessary engineering and construction skills for installing the generators. Reuters has not been able to independently confirm the report, and Anthropic and OnePWR have declined to comment. The demand for Anthropic's Claude family of AI models has driven the need for more computing and power capacity. In September, Reuters reported that Anthropic anticipates spending over $500 billion over the next decade on AI infrastructure.",
