According to an exclusive regulatory filing reported by Reuters, semiconductor powerhouse Broadcom is prepared to lend up to **$42 billion** to AI startup Anthropic. This massive financial facility is structured to back roughly one-third of Anthropic’s staggering $125.2 billion five-year TPU lease commitment. By securing this unprecedented credit line, Anthropic aims to lock down access to multiple gigawatts of next-generation TPU compute capacity through 2027, drastically intensifying its infrastructure race against OpenAI and Google.
