SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) and Anthropic today announced a strategic partnership to deploy up to 2 gigawatts of AMD Instinct MI450 Series GPUs in AMD Helios rack-scale solutions, with deployment of the first gigawatt beginning in the first half of 2027.<\/p>\n
The extraordinary pace of AI adoption is driving rapid growth in demand for training and inference capacity. Anthropic is scaling its compute infrastructure to serve strong and growing demand for Claude, and its adoption of AMD Helios at gigawatt scale represents a major expansion of AMD\u2019s position at the center of the global AI infrastructure buildout.<\/p>\n
Anthropic will deploy AMD Helios rack-scale solutions featuring AMD Instinct\u2122 MI455X GPUs, part of the AMD Instinct MI450 Series, together with AMD EPYC\u2122 \u201cVenice\u201d CPUs, AMD Pensando\u2122 networking and ROCm\u2122 software. Purpose-built for next-generation AI training and inference, Helios delivers the performance, efficiency and scale required for the most demanding AI workloads. This deployment builds on Anthropic\u2019s existing use of AMD Instinct MI355X GPUs.<\/p>\n
In addition, AMD and Anthropic are launching a multi-year engineering collaboration to use Claude to accelerate AMD software development. Specifically, the teams will use Claude to optimize workloads for AMD Instinct GPUs and accelerate ROCm software development. AMD will also broadly adopt Claude across its engineering and product development teams.<\/p>\n
AMD has committed to make a strategic equity investment of up to $5 billion in Anthropic in the future.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are thrilled to deepen our partnership with Anthropic and deploy AMD Helios at gigawatt scale,\u201d said Dr. Lisa Su, chair and CEO, AMD. \u201cThis collaboration brings together Anthropic\u2019s leadership in frontier AI with the full strength of AMD high-performance computing. Together, we will accelerate AI adoption at scale and establish Helios as a major platform for the next generation of AI infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAccess to compute is central to keeping Claude at the frontier and meeting demand from our customers,\u201d said Tom Brown, co-founder and chief compute officer, Anthropic. \u201cBy partnering with AMD across the stack, we are securing the capacity we need and optimizing it for training and serving Claude. Running across a diversified range of hardware lets us map the right workloads to the right hardware.\u201d<\/p>\n
Today\u2019s announcement marks a major milestone in the partnership between AMD and Anthropic. By combining gigawatt-scale deployment and deep engineering collaboration, the companies are building a long-term foundation to accelerate the development and deployment of next-generation AI infrastructure.<\/p>\n
