    Anthropic rent compute to make up for their own shortfalls in ownership. You can see on their careers site that they are hiring datacentre designers.

      Very interesting observation, as far as I can find they’re not building anything significant yet?

      Looking at the company ownership, it seems most of the company is owned by a trust that’s committed to doing the best thing for humanity (?) so hopefully we see some green future data centres

        I don’t hold out much hope for them. I think they are the most interesting AI company, but I would bet they are also of the belief that the environment should be sacrificed for AI progress, as they also believe that AI will fix everything later
