Here’s the answer to your queation (from the article)
> The Anthropic deal specifically covers Trainium2 through Trainium4 chips, even though Trainium4 chips are not currently available. The latest chip, Trainium3, was released in December. On top of that, Anthropic has secured the option to buy capacity on future Amazon chips as they become available.

- superkuh 6mo agoAh. So it's a scalper situation where an unethetical entity buys up all the supply and then resells it for a greater price.
- t0mas88 6mo agoAmazon isn't buying and reselling Trainium chips, those are their in house developed custom chips.
