AI startup Anthropic is taking a different approach to the AI infrastructure competition by prioritizing algorithmic efficiency and high-quality data rather than expanding compute capacity like rivals such as OpenAI. CNBC reported that Daniela Amodei, Anthropic’s president and co-founder, stated that although the Scaling Law governing compute and model size remains valid, it is not the only route to success in AI development. Amodei emphasized that sustainable economic models will determine long-term leadership in the sector.
