Austria is urging the European Union to consider hosting Anthropic's AI system within its borders. The move aims to counter recent U.S. efforts to block foreign access to the company's most advanced models, according to a Bloomberg News report.
The proposal represents a significant geopolitical play in the global race for AI infrastructure and talent. Reuters could not immediately verify the Bloomberg report.
