At the Code with Claude developer conference in San Francisco, Anthropic announced a significant partnership with SpaceX, allowing the company to utilize the full compute capacity of SpaceX's data center in Memphis, Tennessee. This collaboration aims to enhance the performance of Anthropic's Claude Code, particularly for Pro and Max plan subscribers, by doubling their usage limits and removing peak-hour restrictions. The deal provides Anthropic with access to over 300 megawatts of compute power, leveraging SpaceX's Colossus 1 supercomputer, which boasts over 220,000 NVIDIA GPUs. This technological advancement is part of Anthropic's broader strategy to explore innovative solutions, including the potential development of orbital data centers to address the growing demand for computational resources. Notably, this partnership comes despite previous criticisms from SpaceX CEO Elon Musk regarding Anthropic's practices.
