Anthropic, OpenAI poised to dominate global compute by 2028

Anthropic and OpenAI are projected to control a significant majority of global compute FLOPs by 2028. Their substantial revenue, estimated at $50 million per megawatt, allows them to outbid competitors for compute resources at market rates of $10-15 million per megawatt. This aggressive acquisition strategy is expected to result in them capturing 30% of incremental compute capacity this year, rising to 40-50% in 2027, and ultimately dominating the market by the end of the decade. AI

IMPACT This concentration of compute power could significantly shape the future development and accessibility of advanced AI models.
