    Edge AI Daily Morning Brief (November 4): Anthropic's $895.4 Billion Compute Commitment and GPT-6.2…

    On November 2, Anthropic filed a revised S-1, quantifying for the first time approximately $895.4 billion in long-term compute and infrastructure commitments, about seven times its $132 billion in cash and short-term investments, with IPO discussions valuing the company at up to roughly $2 trillion. During the same period, some OpenAI Codex users spotted an undisclosed identifier "gpt-6.2-astra" on the usage statistics page, accounting for as much as 19.8% of a single account's daily requests, which the company has not acknowledged. Meta, meanwhile, launched its first investment-grade U.S. dollar bond sale in six months, with the 30-year tranche priced at about 7.8%, using the proceeds to fill the AI infrastructure funding gap.
