Anthropic Is Building Its Own Chip (businessinsider.com)

Qwen 3.8 came up this week with claims on being good for designing chips. so competition has to tighten.

I recall how there were custom chips made for LLaMA for that make it super fast which is cool but am I wrong for feeling like that would slow down the release schedule of new frontier models? Couldn't tell from the article if these would be ASICs or more general purpose.

Translation: Anthropic is taking on more debt.

They should vibe code it and see how it goes.

Good, can they please make their own RAM as well and leave some for the little people?

Now they can claim they're "full stack" like Google as another justification for their $1 trillion IPO.

duh. they all are.

Good, another way they can waste more money & hopefully crash faster & harder.
