Nscale and Anthropic are reportedly in talks for yet another $45 billion compute deal
In August, Nscale and Anthropic announced a $45 billion compute deal. The two companies are reportedly discussing yet another deal of the same magnitude.
Anthropic and AI infrastructure provider Nscale are reportedly in the final stages of negotiating a potential $45 billion compute deal, according to sources cited by Bloomberg. Bloomberg obtained information from individuals familiar with the matter, although they noted that discussions are still ongoing and details could change.
If the deal is finalized, it would be the latest in a series of significant compute agreements Anthropic has secured over the past year. Anthropic has been actively pursuing such partnerships, driven by a belief that these investments will ultimately prove profitable. Both companies are also in the process of seeking IPOs, with Anthropic anticipated to go public this year and Nscale aiming for an IPO as well. However, Nscale is facing some investor skepticism over its proposed valuation of $30 billion.
