Investing.com -- Blackstone Inc. has begun early talks with investors about a second large debt package to finance Anthropic PBC's use of chips from Alphabet Inc.'s Google, Bloomberg reported Tuesday.
The details, including the size, structure and whether Blackstone will lead the financing, remain under discussion and may change.
If completed at that size, the deal would surpass the $35 billion debt package arranged by Apollo Global Management Inc. and Blackstone roughly two months ago to fund Anthropic's lease of Google's custom chips.
The Claude creator plans to lease computer chips at five data centers with support from Google as part of the earlier debt deal.
