Epoch AI launched a new AI Chip Users explorer tracking compute growth across five top frontier AI developers — OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic, Meta Superintelligence Labs and SpaceXAI. OpenAI has grown its compute nearly 20-fold since 2023, the sharpest surge in the industry. Estimates cover all compute for research, training and inference, modeled from power capacity disclosures, financial filings, analyst estimates and Epoch's own analysis of major AI data centers.
