Nvidia-Backed Nscale in Talks with Anthropic for Massive $45 Billion AI Cloud Deal
Nscale, the cloud computing startup backed by chip giant Nvidia, is in talks with Anthropic for a substantial $45 billion cloud computing agreement, according to sources familiar with the matter.
The deal would represent one of the largest AI infrastructure commitments to date, positioning Nscale as a major player in providing computational resources for AI development. Anthropic, the company behind the Claude family of AI models, has been rapidly scaling its operations to meet growing demand for its AI products and services.
The timing of these discussions comes as AI companies face increasing pressure to secure compute capacity amid a global shortage of GPUs and cloud resources. Partnerships like this one could help Anthropic ensure reliable access to the computational power needed to train and deploy advanced AI systems.
Neither Nscale nor Anthropic has officially commented on the reported negotiations. Details regarding the specific terms, timeline, or structure of the proposed deal have not been disclosed.
