CryptoWorld News reports that private equity giant Apollo Global Management and Blackstone Group are bringing in more investors for a debt financing deal with a size of approximately $36 billion to help Anthropic build its artificial intelligence infrastructure. This debt financing will be used to purchase Google’s custom TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) chips, which will then be leased for use by Anthropic. Broadcom, the company assisting Google in developing these chips, will provide guarantees for most of the funds in this deal. This move is expected to become one of the largest private credit transactions in history, and it may also be the largest chip financing debt transaction to date. The plan is intended to leverage Broadcom’s creditworthiness to provide computing power support for Anthropic.
