Anthropic has begun hiring research engineers for a chip design team aimed at building custom silicon for its Claude AI models. NDTV reports that the roles seek hardware and software experience to co-design chips and models, helping Claude run faster and more efficiently for customers. The hiring is reported for offices in San Francisco and New York City. Anthropic said custom silicon would be part of a multi-chip strategy, not a replacement for its existing hardware mix. Times Now News, citing Reuters, reports that this includes technology from Amazon Web Services, NVIDIA, Google and AMD. Anthropic has not disclosed when the chips will be deployed or provided technical details. Designing advanced AI chips can cost around half a billion dollars, according to industry sources cited by Times Now News.
