Summary
According to Wall Street CN, Anthropic is accelerating compute stockpiling ahead of its IPO, spending $45 billion to take over a campus Microsoft exited. This move shows AI companies are willing to spend heavily on infrastructure to support large-scale model training and inference, further driving up AI capital expenditure.
Bubble analysis
This $45 billion expenditure far exceeds Anthropic's current revenue capacity, a classic 'spend to scale' behavior that directly inflates AI industry capex, reinforcing the core argument for a bubble.
