The startup Anthropic announces an investment of 50 billion dollars for the expansion of AI infrastructure in the USA, with data centers in Texas and New York, generating 800 jobs.

Anthropic, an American artificial intelligence startup, has unveiled an ambitious $50 billion investment plan to expand its AI infrastructure in the United States. The project, carried out in partnership with Fluidstack, will include customized data centers in Texas and New York, with the first facilities scheduled to become operational in 2026. This expansion will create 800 permanent jobs and over 2,000 in construction. CEO Dario Amodei emphasized that the investment will support the development of more advanced AI systems, contributing to scientific discoveries and solving complex problems.

In a competitive context, where rivals like OpenAI are rapidly expanding their computing capabilities, Anthropic already serves over 300,000 corporate clients, with significant growth in large accounts. The company hopes to achieve profitability by 2028, anticipating fierce competition with OpenAI. The project also raises questions about the government's role in funding critical technology infrastructure, especially in light of OpenAI's request to expand fiscal support for AI data centers.
