"Anthropic serves more than 300,000 business customers, and our number of large accounts -- customers that each represent over $100,000 in run-rate revenue -- has grown nearly sevenfold in the past year," the company wrote in the announcement, citing the demand behind the expansion."
"Also: AI will cause 'jobs chaos' within the next few years, says Gartner - what that means The new facilities -- slated to be built in Texas, New York, and other locations across the country that have yet to be disclosed -- will be "custom built for Anthropic with a focus on maximizing efficiency for our workloads, enabling continued research and development at the frontier," the blog post said."
Anthropic plans a $50 billion investment to build proprietary data centers in the United States, including sites in Texas and New York. The company reports serving over 300,000 business customers and a nearly sevenfold increase in large accounts, driving demand for dedicated infrastructure. The facilities will be custom built to maximize efficiency for Anthropic's workloads and to enable continued frontier research and development. Industry observers view the move as a potential signal of a broader trend of AI companies constructing their own sustainable computing capacity rather than relying solely on hyperscalers.
