Anthropic is weighing building its own artificial intelligence chips, sources sayReuters, SAN FRANCISCOArtificial intelligence (AI) lab Anthropic is exploring the possibility of designing its own chips, three sources said, as the company and its rivals respond to a shortage of AI chips needed to power and develop more advanced AI systems. Anthropic uses a range of chips, including tensor processing units (TPUs) designed by Alphabet’s Google and Amazon’s chips to develop and run its AI software and chatbot Claude. Earlier this week, Anthropic signed a long-term deal with Google and Broadcom, which helps design the TPUs. Anthropic’s discussions mirror similar efforts underway at large tech companies that are seeking to design their own AI chips, including Meta and OpenAI. Anthropic launched the powerful Mythos model earlier this week, but stopped short of a broad release, citing concerns it could expose previously unknown cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
