The SpaceX-Anthropic Deal Shows AI Is Becoming a Fight Over GPUs and Power Note: I originally wrote this post in Korean on May 7, 2026. This is a lightly edited English version for de.to. TL;DR SpaceX and Anthropic have signed a large-scale compute infrastructure deal. By gaining access to SpaceX’s computing capacity, Anthropic can raise usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API. This is not just a routine product update. It shows a broader shift in AI competition: from model performance alone to GPU access, power capacity, and the ability to run AI systems reliably at scale. 1.
