AFR's Street Talk column got their hands on Anthropic's computing demand tender to Australian data centre companies: 1.4 gigawatts of capacity, with 1 gigawatt by the end of 2027.
That's more than capacity of the entire Australia's data centre industry in 2025.

@camwilson@mastodon.social Much mirth in those costings. Current costings in the US around $US100B per GW. Is Australia 10x cheaper? Absurd.
