Anthropic signs huge chip deal with Google and Broadcom

The AI company Anthropic has signed a major new deal with Google and the chipmaker Broadcom. The agreement is for Google's custom AI chips, called TPUs, and involves a massive amount of computing power—3.5 gigawatts worth.

This deal is part of a broader partnership where Anthropic is working with both Google and Broadcom to secure the advanced computer chips it needs to run its AI models. The company's revenue is reportedly growing fast, with some estimates putting its annual run rate above $30 billion, which would put it ahead of its rival OpenAI.
