+++ Anthropic scored 300+ MW of compute from SpaceX's Colossus cluster, which means Claude's usage limits just went up because apparently scaling laws work better with actual scale. +++
"per @claudeai on X:
We’ve agreed to a partnership with @SpaceX that will substantially increase our compute capacity.
This, along with our other recent compute deals, means that we’ve been able to increase our usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API.
Effective today, we are:
