Compute Awakens: SpaceX, Anthropic, and the GPU Spice War
Host Emily Laird pulls back the curtain on the SpaceX-Anthropic compute deal, where AI stops looking like cloud magic and starts looking like megawatts, GPUs, cooling systems, and very expensive landlord drama. This episode breaks down why inference is the new bottleneck, why Claude needs more muscle, and why the AI race now feels less like a chess match and more like Dune with server racks. From agentic AI to orbital data centers, it is a fast, funny look at the machinery deciding who gets the future and who gets stuck in the waiting room.
