Anthropic building its own inference chip makes sense.
The AI race is becoming vertically integrated.
A few years ago, the advantage came from having the best model.
Today, your cost per token, latency, and compute supply increasingly determine whether that model becomes a business.
That’s why frontier labs are moving down the stack.
Models alone are no longer enough.
