PANews reported on May 29th that private equity giants Apollo Global Management and Blackstone Group are bringing in more investors for a debt financing deal worth approximately $36 billion to help Anthropic build its artificial intelligence infrastructure. Sources familiar with the matter revealed that the debt financing will be used to purchase custom TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) chips from Google, which Anthropic will then lease. Broadcom, which assisted Google in developing the chip, will guarantee the majority of the transaction. This move is expected to be one of the largest private credit deals in history, and possibly the largest chip financing debt deal to date. The scheme aims to leverage Broadcom's creditworthiness to provide computing power support to Anthropic.
