Google's TPU Deal with Anthropic, Microsoft Edge Copilot Mode, and Crusoe's AI Funding

In this episode, we dive into Anthropic's massive partnership expansion with Google Cloud, securing access to up to one million TPUs in a deal worth tens of billions of dollars. We explore how this compute agreement reflects the extraordinary scale required for frontier AI development as Anthropic's business customer base grows to over 300,000. Next, we examine Microsoft's new Copilot Mode for Edge browser, transforming it into an "AI browser" with context-aware capabilities across multiple tabs and introducing agentic Copilot Actions that can perform tasks automatically. Finally, we discuss Crusoe Energy's impressive $1.38 billion Series E funding round for AI data center expansion, which values the company at nearly $10 billion and includes investments from NVIDIA, Fidelity, and others.https://www.aiconvocast.comHelp support the podcast by using our affiliate links:Eleven Labs: https://try.elevenlabs.io/ibl30sgkibkvDisclaimer:This podcast is an independent production and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Google, Anthropic, Microsoft, Crusoe Energy, or any other entities mentioned unless explicitly mentioned.
