On May 29, news surfaced that private equity behemoths Apollo Global Management and Blackstone Group are rallying additional investors for a staggering debt financing deal, valued at roughly $36 billion. This substantial funding is earmarked to bolster Anthropic's endeavors in constructing artificial intelligence infrastructure. Sources privy to the details revealed that the proceeds from this financing will be channeled towards acquiring Google's bespoke TPU chips, which Anthropic will then lease out. Broadcom, the tech giant that collaborated with Google in the chip's development, is set to underwrite the lion's share of the funds. This transaction is poised to etch its name in history as one of the most significant private credit deals ever struck and potentially the grandest chip financing debt agreement to date. The overarching strategy hinges on harnessing Broadcom's sterling credit reputation to furnish Anthropic with the computational muscle it needs.
