The download milestone places Muse in a historically rare group dominated by mobile games, while its above-average retention rates suggest the app is converting initial curiosity into sustained engagement more effectively than competing AI products. That combination of rapid acquisition and stickier usage strengthens Meta's position in the consumer AI market, even as daily active users remain under a quarter of total U.S. downloads.

Anthropic is negotiating a 2nd $45B compute deal with Nscale that would double its West Virginia reservation to 920 MW. This is for another 460 MW building at Nscale’s Monarch Compute Campus running Nvidia’s Vera Rubin chips, and Anthropic also holds a right of first refusal on the campus’s expected third building. The first contract, signed in August, is a 6-year, 460 MW lease with delivery starting in late 2027, which averages $7.5B a year, or about $16.3M per MW. Because Monarch’s first

The second deal would match the scale of the first 460 MW contract signed in August, indicating Anthropic is committing to a sustained, large-scale expansion of its compute infrastructure rather than a one-off buildout. The reported right of first refusal on the campus's expected third building suggests the company is positioning to lock in further capacity at the same site.
