AMD, Anthropic team up to build gigawatt-scale AI infrastructure
Competition to build computing infrastructure is spreading to gigawatt-scale capacity as AI demand grows. AMD and Anthropic said they signed a strategic partnership to deploy an \'AMD Helios\' rack-scale solution using up to 2 gigawatts of AMD Instinct MI450 series GPUs. Anthropic plans a first 1-gigawatt build starting in the first half of 2027, expanding its current MI355X-based environment. The two will also cooperate on engineering and software.

Nvidia AI CPU \'Vera\' posts first benchmark results, close to AMD EPYC
Nvidia\'s next-generation AI-focused CPU, Vera, delivered performance close to AMD\'s top-end EPYC lineup in public benchmarks, and led in some areas. Tests cited by online outlet Gigazine showed strong single-socket results and near dual-socket flagship EPYC performance in some code compilation tasks. The benchmarks were based on measurements by Linux-focused outlet Phoronix. Vera uses Nvidia-designed Olympus cores, supports FP8 and PCIe 6 and is aimed at data centres.
