If you're using Anthropic's Claude API, there's a change you probably missed: on March 6th, they shortened the time-to-live (TTL) on cached requests. Basically, this means the temporary storage that speeds up your API calls and saves you money won't stick around as long anymore. It's like they just made your fridge expire food faster—not a huge deal if you're making fresh requests constantly, but if you were relying on cache hits to cut costs, you might notice your bills creeping up. The exact new TTL wasn't explicitly announced, which is the annoying part. Worth checking your API logs to see if this affects your usage patterns.

Anthropic announced on Monday (4/20) a major long-term partnership with Amazon, committing to spend over $100 billion on AWS computing power over the next decade while securing up to 5GW of computational capacity for training and deploying Claude models. The companies are also expanding their capital partnership, with Amazon investing $5 billion upfront and potentially adding up to $20 billion more based on business milestones.
5GW is enough power to run a small city, and Anthropic just locked it up for a decade — that's scarcity economics in action
