Private equity giants Blackstone and Apollo are planning massive chip financing for Anthropic Odaily Planet Daily News: Private equity giant 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. Insiders revealed that this debt financing will be used to purchase customized TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) chips from Google, which will then be leased by Anthropic. Broadcom, which assists Google in developing the chip, will provide guarantee for most of the payment for this transaction. This move is expected to become one of the largest private equity credit transactions in history, and may also be the largest chip financing debt transaction to date. This plan aims to leverage Broadcom's credit qualifications to provide computing power support for Anthropic.
