While AI companies are now seen raising subscription prices and introducing advertisements in their services, Anthropic recently issued an interesting statement regarding the reality of introducing new technology and the development of data centers that involve increasing electricity consumption.
AI technology developers such as Claude and Opus said that increasing electricity consumption is something that cannot be avoided, because the addition of data centers will indeed cause this.
However, the statement also said that Anthropic will bear the cost of increasing electricity consumption in areas where they cannot provide their own electricity supply sources.
They will work with electricity supply companies or bodies to ensure that the power consumption of their data centers will not burden residents in their neighborhoods. They will also work with data center partners to ensure that electricity consumption is more efficient and will not increase at a sudden rate.
In fact, Anthropic will also bear the cost of developing new technology, and as far as possible, they will not increase the subscription prices of their AI services suddenly, nor introduce advertisements in their services.
