The project is reportedly still in its early stages, with no detailed design yet. Anthropic is still working out what the chip would do and how powerful it needs to be. The company played down the effort, telling The Information that chips from AWS, Google, and Nvidia remain central to its strategy. It declined to comment on any chip roadmap of its own.<\/p>\n<p>Still, signs point toward a chip being in the works. Anthropic has brought on chip engineers, <a href=\"https:\/\/the-decoder.com\/anthropic-poaches-openais-second-ever-chip-engineer-as-both-companies-race-toward-ipos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">including Clive Chan<\/a>, an early member of both Tesla&#8217;s and OpenAI&#8217;s custom chip teams. He&#8217;s expected to build out a dedicated chip group at Anthropic.<\/p>\n<p>The move follows a broader trend. Whoever can build and run AI infrastructure more cheaply keeps more of the revenue. Custom chips are how you get there. OpenAI recently unveiled <a href=\"https:\/\/the-decoder.com\/openai-and-broadcom-unveil-jalapeno-a-custom-chip-built-for-llm-inference\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">&#8220;Jalape\u00f1o,&#8221; its first in-house inference chip, built with Broadcom<\/a>. AWS, Google, and Meta all run custom silicon tuned for AI workloads.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\tAI News Without the Hype \u2013 Curated by Humans<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\tSubscribe to THE DECODER for ad-free reading, a weekly AI newsletter, our exclusive &#8220;AI Radar&#8221; frontier report six times a year, full archive access, and access to our comment section.\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/the-decoder.com\/subscription\/\" class=\"inline-block text-white bg-(--heise-primary) mt-3 hover:bg-blue-800 focus:ring-4 focus:outline-none focus:ring-blue-300 font-medium rounded-sm w-full sm:w-auto  pl-3 pr-3 py-2.5 text-center newsletter-submit-button hover:no-underline\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tSubscribe now\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Anthropic is in talks with Samsung Electronics about manufacturing a custom AI chip, according to The Information.
