Anthropic, the San Francisco-based artificial intelligence (AI) startup, announced a partnership with Elon Musk's SpaceX on Wednesday. As part of the partnership, the Claude maker will get to access more than 300 megawatts of processing power, significantly boosting its existing compute capacity. As a result of this and other collaborations, Anthropic has also announced that it is doubling the five-hour rate limit for Claude Code, removing the peak hour limit reduction, and increasing application programming interface (API) rate limits for Claude Opus models.
