Amazon revamps Indiana AI campus into Trainium cluster for next frontier model

Amazon plans to convert part of its Indiana data center campus into a large Trainium-powered cluster for its next frontier AI model, according to internal documents reviewed by Business Insider. The effort, called “AGI Pivot,” involves linking facilities into an AGI SuperCluster using more than 6,000 Trainium servers, expanding storage for multimodal training, and upgrading to newer chips. It continues despite recent AGI job cuts. The Indiana campus also hosts Project Rainier, Amazon’s supercomputer built for Anthropic, which will be unaffected. Amazon expects its custom chip business, including Trainium, to generate over $25 billion annually.
