Anthropic has confirmed a massive $15 billion investment plan for data centers across Australia. The company aims to secure 1.4 gigawatts of capacity by mid-2027.
This move follows a memorandum of understanding with the Australian government. It represents a strategic push to build Western-aligned AI infrastructure outside the United States. Anthropic plans to achieve at least 1 gigawatt of activated capacity by the end of 2027.
The infrastructure will support the training and deployment of Anthropic's future AI models, including its Claude system. The expansion signals significant growth for the AI developer as it builds out its global footprint.
