Anthropic Expands Partnership with Google and Broadcom for Multi-Gigawatt TPU Compute Capacity
Anthropic has signed a new agreement with Google and Broadcom for multiple gigawatts of next-generation TPU capacity expected to come online starting in 2027, representing the company's largest compute commitment to date. The announcement coincides with Anthropic reporting run-rate revenue surpassing $30 billion, up from ~$9 billion at end of 2025, and the number of enterprise customers spending over $1M annually doubling to 1,000+ in under two months. The compute will be predominantly US-sited, extending Anthropic's November 2025 $50B American infrastructure commitment. Anthropic continues to operate across AWS Trainium, Google TPUs, and NVIDIA GPUs, with Amazon remaining its primary cloud and training partner.
Hugging Face on PyTorch / XLA TPUs
This Hugging Face blog post covers the integration of Hugging Face Transformers with PyTorch/XLA for training on Google TPUs. It describes how users can leverage TPU hardware through the XLA compiler backend to accelerate transformer model training. The post serves as a technical guide for the ecosystem connecting Hugging Face's model library with Google's TPU infrastructure.
Training a Language Model with Hugging Face Transformers Using TensorFlow and TPUs
This Hugging Face blog post provides a technical walkthrough for training a language model using TensorFlow and Google TPUs via the Transformers library. It covers the practical setup, data pipeline, and training configuration required to leverage TPU hardware with the TF ecosystem. The post serves as a tutorial bridging Hugging Face tooling with TPU-based infrastructure.
Stable Diffusion in JAX / Flax
Hugging Face published a blog post demonstrating Stable Diffusion running in JAX/Flax, enabling efficient inference on TPU hardware. The post covers the technical implementation of diffusion pipelines using Flax's functional programming model. This represents an early effort to bring high-performance image generation to Google's TPU ecosystem via the Diffusers library.
Data Points: OpenAI and Microsoft sever their exclusive relationship
This edition of The Batch covers several major AI industry developments: OpenAI has revised its partnership with Microsoft, ending exclusivity while retaining Microsoft as primary cloud partner through 2032 and gaining freedom to deploy on AWS and Google Cloud. DeepSeek released V4 model weights featuring 1M-token context and Huawei Ascend chip optimization, though it trails leading open and closed models on aggregate benchmarks. Google and Amazon are deepening investments in Anthropic with up to $40B and $25B respectively in funding-for-compute deals, and an agentic AI system autonomously designed a functional RISC-V CPU from a 219-word spec in 12 hours.
Anthropic Announces SpaceX Colossus Compute Deal and Higher Claude Usage Limits
Anthropic has signed an agreement with SpaceX to access the full compute capacity of the Colossus 1 data center, gaining over 300 megawatts and 220,000+ NVIDIA GPUs within a month. This deal, combined with prior agreements with Amazon, Google/Broadcom, Microsoft/NVIDIA, and Fluidstack, enables Anthropic to double Claude Code rate limits, remove peak-hour restrictions for Pro/Max users, and raise API rate limits for Claude Opus models. The announcement also notes interest in developing orbital AI compute capacity with SpaceX, and outlines international infrastructure expansion for enterprise compliance needs.
