Meta is in early-stage talks to lease up to USD 10 billion in data centre computing capacity to Anthropic over two years, potentially opening a new cloud business for Meta competing with Amazon, Microsoft and Google.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI Infrastructure and Cloud Infrastructure, and 2 sources have reported it.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

If this closes, Meta has just turned a USD 125-145 billion capex bet into a revenue-generating asset class, and cloud compute pricing just got a new competitor willing to undercut AWS and Azure. Your AI startup's running costs just became negotiable.
