Summary
Anthropic, the AI company behind Claude, has reportedly signed a $3.4 billion contract to buy gas-fired engines (power plants) from OnePWR Solutions, a Texas-based energy company. These gas power plants would be able to provide Anthropic’s AI data centers with an enormous amount of off-grid electricity — with the real cost being an enormous amount of air pollution and global warming emissions. If you thought Anthropic was supposed to be “the good guy” in the AI industry, perhaps think again.
