Stephen Hackett blogs about the Anthropic + SpaceX / xAI news, with more questions:
Colossus 2 is believed to be up and running, at least to some degree, and xAI may no longer need the first site. Has xAI moved Grok there, leaving the original data center and its yet-to-be-built water treatment plant open for lease? How much is Anthropic paying xAI for the site? Was this a move to help bring some sanity to xAI’s books as SpaceX plans to go public?
Also with the OpenAI trial on my mind, there’s a certain perspective to the story where both Elon Musk and Dario Amodei were frustrated at OpenAI and left, at different times and for different reasons, and now they’re partners.
