  "account": "Anthropic, an AI startup, has secured a significant $3.4 billion deal to acquire gas-fired power generators for its data centers, according to a report by the Financial Times. The agreement, signed in late September, involves 1.7 gigawatts of heavy-duty generators from equipment supplier OnePWR Solutions, headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. While Anthropic did not take ownership of OnePWR, the deal did encompass engineering and construction expertise necessary for the installation of the generators. No details have been verified by Reuters, and both Anthropic and OnePWR have not responded to inquiries regarding the matter. The surge in demand for Anthropic's Claude family of AI models has led the company to necessitate extra computing and power resources. Earlier this month, Reuters revealed a forecast from Anthropic suggesting it will allocate over $500 billion over the next decade to constructing AI infrastructure.",
