(Reuters) -Anthropic said on Thursday it Claude models would be trained using up to one million of Google Cloud's tensor processing units, worth tens of billions of dollars. The deal underscores the immense computing demands of AI firms for training, deployment and continuous inference in generative AI, as they race to launch new products and features to stay ahead in a fiercely competitive market. To secure infrastructure swiftly, developers have been rushing into multi-billion dollar agreements. Alphabet's Google, also a backer of Anthropic, will provide additional cloud computing services to the startup behind the Claude chatbot.
