Anthropic confirmed that the move is aimed at improving Claude's speed, efficiency, and scalability. The company will adopt a multi-chip strategy, co-designing hardware and AI models, while continuing to rely on chips from companies such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google, NVIDIA, and AMD. This move also aligns with a broader industry trend, following reports that Anthropic is in talks with Samsung for potential manufacturing cooperation, and OpenAI's launch of its own custom AI chip earlier this year.
