The Edition No. 36
Anthropic has agreed to pay about $3.4 billion for commitments covering 1.7 gigawatts of heavy-duty gas-fired generators from San Antonio supplier OnePWR Solutions, the Financial Times reported, calling it the largest known single purchase of power-generation equipment by an AI lab. Anthropic took over OnePWR’s existing Caterpillar generator orders, along with the engineering and construction capability needed to install them, but did not acquire the company itself. Neither company commented, and Reuters said it could not immediately verify the report. Separately, Elon Musk said on X that fixes to make Grok Bot more token-efficient and smarter are underway.
