This 100%

Expressing an interest is presumably free... So anthropic might as well.

Source? I'd like to read more on Anthropic's views of space compute

Which is now their official position I guess as this whole “AI space datacenter” stuff is a significant part of the whole SpaceX IPO.

I assume privately they may not share that opinion, but it’s not in Anthropic’s interest to talk about this (very little to gain, and may ruffle a lot of feathers if they say the wrong thing).

AI space datacenters only make sense from one perspective -- sovereignty.

If you're someone with a lot of money, who dislikes governments meddling in your business, and often pisses off governments...

... oh, I see why this is an Elon talking point now.

But also - anyone would be interested in purchasing orbital compute at the price Elon is quoting.
