======================================================================Anthropi
c strikes deal worth tens of billions of dollars with Google Cloud Claude 
maker will add more Google TPUs to its Nvidia GPU and Amazon Trainium 
portfolio Amazon remains Anthropics primary training partner and cloud 
provider 

Anthropic has signed a multi-billion dollar deal with Google which will see 
the AI firm gain up to one million Google Cloud tensor processing units 
(TPUs) for training and running its large language models ( LLMs ). 

The deal, worth tens of billions of dollars according to Anthropic , will 
mean the company could have well over a gigawatt of compute capacity by 2026. 

The expansion comes after a successful year for Anthropic, which has seen the 
number of customers worth $100,000+ in run-rate revenue grow nearly 7x in the 
past year thanks to the ongoing AI boom. Anthropic boosts capacity 

Anthropic CFO Krishna Rao notes the move is a continuation of the partnership 
between it and Google Cloud, which was likely chosen because of its price 
performance and energy efficiency  not to mention the existing positive 
relationship between the two. 

Because of the power delivery design of Googles TPUs, theyre typically more 
power-efficient than Nvidias GPUs, which are synonymous with other AI tech 
such as Anthropic competitor OpenAI. 

Such a large deal is probably a good sign for Google, then, which wants to 
challenge Nvidias market dominance. 

We are continuing to innovate and drive further efficiencies and increased 
capacity of our TPUs, building on our already mature AI accelerator 
portfolio, including our seventh generation TPU, Ironwood, Google Cloud CEO 
Thomas Kurian explained. 

However, Google isnt Anthropics only partner. Nvidias GPUs and Amazons 
Trainium also play an important role in the companys multi-vendor strategy, 
and indeed Amazon remains Anthropics primary training partner and cloud 
provider.
