Inside Amazon's massive Anthropic data center, training AI without Nvidia

Amazon’s biggest AI data center is now operational in Indiana, with half a million AWS Trainium 2 chips entirely devoted to powering OpenAI rival Anthropic.

Just over a year ago, it was nothing but cornfields. Once complete, 30 buildings will consume 2.2 gigawatts of power there. CNBC talked to AWS CEO Matt Garman about the project, and went to New Carlisle, Indiana, to ask locals about the impact — and for a first ever on-camera tour inside the largest cluster of non-Nvidia chips in the world.
