Anthropic continues compute-gobbling streak in $45B deal with Nscale

Anthropic has signed a deal to rent about $45 billion in AI compute fromNscale, a British AI infrastructure company, a source familiar with the deal told TechCrunch. Nscale, founded only in 2024, has already cut deals withthe likes of Microsoftand will supply Anthropic with compute via Nvidia’s Vera Rubin chips, itsnew state-of-the-art chip system. The Vera Rubin system combines six different chips working in concert and is considered the cutting edge of chip design. The compute capacity is expected to start powering the AI lab’s services in late 2027, the source said. The deal, firstreported by Bloomberg, is only the latest in a spree of compute partnerships for Anthropic. Bloomberg writes that the deal spans six years, with the computing power coming from Nscale’sflagship data centerin West Virginia. Over the past eight months, Anthropic has aggressively scaled up its compute capacity in an effort to better compete with rivals, most notably OpenAI. Earlier this month, Anthropic signed a$10 billion dealwith AI cloud startup Volta —founded in January— securing a six-year supply of cloud computing power from a data center in Norway. In July, the company also signed a$5 billion compute-related dealwith AMD. A few months before that, in May, Anthropic revealed it had entered into alarge computing dealwith SpaceX (run by Elon Musk, whose rivalry with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has made him an unlikely ally of Anthropic). That deal draws computing capacity from two different SpaceX data centers and isreportedlyproviding Anthropic with $1.25 billion worth of capacity each month. In April, Anthropic also signed a deal to significantly expand its partnership with Amazon, gaining access to anadditional 5 gigawattsof compute. That same month, the company alsoexpanded its relationshipwith Google and Broadcom, adding even more power capacity. Anthropic is hardly alone in its enthusiastic pursuit of more AI horsepower. The race to gobble up as much compute capacity as possible is ongoing, with other major players — including Google, OpenAI, and Meta — all following a similar track.

The FAA’s plan to fix air traffic? $875M worth of AI

The FAA’s plan to fix air traffic? $875M worth of AI

The Federal Aviation Administration has beenstruggling to managean air traffic control shortage throughout the country. The reasons for the shortageare diverse, but the government has made it known that it’s on the lookout for innovative solutions to the problem. One of those solutions appears to be an $875 million AI software program that is expected to help air traffic controllers manage their workflows and more safely navigate flight routes. The Wall Street Journalreportsthat the FAA will soon launch SMART, which stands for Strategic Management of Airspace, Routes, and Trajectories — an automated software program designed to help streamline air traffic operations. Aone-page readouton the program describes SMART as “a cloud-based platform system that enhances existing FAA air traffic management systems.” It adds that the program uses AI to assess “airline schedules, weather, airport capacity, airspace conditions, and operational constraints to predict traffic flows and identify potential conflicts before they occur.” SMART, the product of a firm called Air Space Intelligence, will cost the government that amount over a 12-year period, the outlet writes. The software will roll out in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area first before expanding to other regions, it says. Earlier this year, the FAAalso announceda “bold, new” hiring plan that the agency said would “erase the longstanding staffing shortage,” and the government is separately engaged in a broad effort to modernize the nation’s aging air traffic systems.

PrismML hopes its tiny LLM will change how we all use AI

PrismML hopes its tiny LLM will change how we all use AI

If AI labPrismMLisn’t on your radar yet, it should be — not because it’s raised gobs of money (it hasn’t yet, just a $22.25 million seed round), but because of the technical minds involved and the potentially industry-changing tech it’s developing. PrismML is betting that capable, high-performing, reasoning large language models don’t, in fact, have to be large. It is making reasoning models so small they can fit on PCs and smartphones. (It’s even rumoredto be in talks with Apple, though CEO Babak Hassibi declined to comment on that to TechCrunch.) On Thursday, PrismMLreleased Bonsai 2 27B, its latest in a family of models, which compresses Qwen3.8 27B, a widely used open source model from Alibaba, down to 5.9 GB. That’s small enough to fit on a PC and, possibly, a high-end smartphone. It’s a 9x to 10x reduction in memory versus the original. PrismML was founded by a group of Caltech researchers and is led by Hassibi, a Caltech professor and an expert in compression technologies. The startup also counts Ion Stoica as an adviser. Stoica is a co-founder of Databricks (and other companies) and the director of Berkeley’s famed Sky Computing Lab, which has birthed many technologies and startups, fromLettatoSGLang. PrismML is also backed by investors Khosla Ventures, Cerberus Capital, and Caltech. This startup is certainly not the only company working on LLM compression tech. Multiverse Computing, founded by a well-known professor from Spain’s Donostia International Physics Center, is another. (And Multiverse Computinghas raised gobs of cash.) But Hassibi says that PrismML’s compression tech is unique because its LLMs have lost virtually no performance compared with the originals. Bonsai 2 matches 98% of Qwen’s aggregate benchmark scores. That’s up from the first Bonsai, released a couple of months ago in March, that matched 95%. That original model has already been downloaded over 11 million times, and PrismML’s even smaller models have been downloaded another 2.6 million times, the company says. So this shows that PrismML’s compression results have improved from one release to the next. Whether it could ever get to 100% benchmark performance parity is a question that remains to be seen. Compression will likely always havesomeimpact, Hassibi says. Still, perfect benchmark parity is fairly academic anyway. LLMs are not so accurate in their uncompressed form, and benchmarks not so perfectly reflective of actual tasks, that a 2% degradation would likely meaningfully affect how a model performs in actual use. (Plus, the surrounding software — the harness a model runs inside of —matters a lot when it comes to accuracy, too.) PrismML says it achieves this by shrinking the “weights” that make up a model — weights are, essentially, the information a model learns and stores during training. Normally, each weight requires 16 bits. PrismML’s approach, called “ternary” weights, simplifies that down to three: +1, −1, or 0. With far smaller values to store for each weight, the model takes up dramatically less space. (For a deeper dive on the compression technique, here’s the project’sHugging Face page.) The startup’s next goal is to apply this compression technique to even bigger models. “The next models that we will release, hopefully in the next couple of months, will be in the several-hundred-billion-parameter range, and I expect it will be easier to retain the intelligence there,” Hassibi told TechCrunch. As model size grows, he added, “There is more room to be able to compress them without losing the intelligence. So I would just say, as a general trend, for larger models, it’s easier to get to 100%.” Stoica tells us that he’s excited for this tech because it’s making it possible for advanced models to run on users’ devices. “You are going to have intelligence at your fingertips, and it’s going to be free because it’s going to run on the device you already bought. It’s also going to be private, because you’re not going to send it to the cloud.”

Google DeepMind launches institute to widen the AGI debate

Google DeepMind launches institute to widen the AGI debate

Google and Google DeepMind researchers launched the DeepMind Institute on Wednesday to advance the conversation around artificial general intelligence (AGI). The institute lists DeepMind co-founder Shane Legg, Google executive James Manyika, and Google DeepMind chair Demis Hassabis as directors, with Legg serving as managing editor. The new institute aims to surface differing views between Google, Google DeepMind, and the broader global research community around AGI. “They will not always agree, and they will likely change their minds, as more data and information comes to light at the fast-moving frontier,” the announcement read. The inaugural collection of four essays covers a range of topics: economic policies for managing potential AGI disruption, preserving human-readable model reasoning, principles for human flourishing, and a framework for evaluating frontier AI models. Oneessay, by DeepMind safety researchers Rohin Shah and Anca Dragan, argues that AI’s shrinking window of transparency — the ability to see and check a model’s step-by-step reasoning — is not inevitable. As new architectures make the most powerful modelsharderto monitor, the authors say developers and regulators should confront the safety trade-offs directly. That could mean limiting “opaque serial depth”— the amount of sequential computation a model can perform without producing a readable reasoning trace — or requiring developers to demonstrate that less transparent systems remain just as monitorable. In anotheressay, Hassabis proposes a U.S.-led frontier AI standards body to evaluate the most advanced AI models. Under his framework, developers would initially submit models voluntarily for review up to 30 days before release. Once the evaluation system has proved effective, passing its tests could become a requirement for deploying frontier models in the United States. The body would at first design assessments in consultation with AI companies but would eventually develop independent, undisclosed evaluations — what the essay calls “held-out” tests — to prevent labs from tailoring their models to known evaluations. Hassabis said the framework could be “ratcheted up if the seriousness of the situation demands,” potentially including a coordinated slowdown among frontier AI developers. The essays arrive as the industry’s safety debateshiftsfrom broad statements of concern toward concrete proposals for disclosure, outside scrutiny, and, if safeguards fall behind, coordinated slowdowns. That shift accelerated this week as industry leaders endorsed elements of Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei’scallto “pace” frontier AI development.

Crusoe raises $3.9B to build massive data centers and small modular ‘AI factories’

Crusoe raises $3.9B to build massive data centers and small modular ‘AI factories’

Data center developer Crusoe said Thursday it raised $3.9 billion in a Series F round that pushes its valuation to $30.9 billion. The massive round was co-led by Atreides Management, Mubadala Capital, and Valor Equity Partners. Founders Fund, GIC, Nvidia, Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), Radical Ventures, and TPG also participated, according to Crusoe. Crusoe also announced threenew board members, including Cloudflare CFO Thomas Seifert; Bill Stein, partner and CIO at Primary Digital Infrastructure; and Redwood Materials founder and CEO JB Straubel, who also sits on Tesla’s board. Straubel already has ties to Crusoe; he personally invested in the company in 2021, and Crusoe later became the first customer of Redwood’s energy storage business. The eight-year-old company’s fresh capital infusion will help finance existing data center projects, including a large site in Abilene, Texas, used by OpenAI, as well as smaller, modular AI factories that can be transported by truck and connected to large power sources almost anywhere. By manufacturing these modular data centers, called Spark, at its own facilities, Crusoe can deploy compute capacity quickly and without the need for large construction workforces. The smaller centers could also help Crusoe sidestep, at least in part, another major obstacle facing data center developers: backlash from local communities protesting massive complexes near their neighborhoods. Crusoe co-founder and CEO Chase Lochmiller, who is pictured above, said in a statement he believes AI will usher in an era of abundance, but to get there will mean “controlling the infrastructure from electrons to tokens, and we’re grateful to have investors who share that conviction.” The company makes money by leasing data center space to customers that bring their own GPUs, by renting out its own GPUs, and by selling compute power used to run AI models, known as inference. This three-pronged business model has helped make Crusoe one of the most valuable AI infrastructure companies. Crusoe recently signed amassive $13 billion, five-year cloud contract to supply quantitative trading firm Jane Street with GPUs and AI infrastructure, Bloomberg reported. The company recently met with investment bankers, including Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, to discuss a potential IPO in the near future,Axios reportedlast month. The fresh fundraise comes 10 months after Crusoe raised $1.38 billion at a$10 billion valuationlast October. The company was founded in 2018 as a crypto mining operation powered by flared natural gas, but pivoted to AI infrastructure as demand for computing power skyrocketed. Crusoe’s customers include Meta, Microsoft, and Oracle.
