AMD commits up to $5B to Anthropic in new partnership

Advanced Micro Devices on Wednesday revealed plans to invest up to $5 billion in Anthropic "in the future." The partnership will also see Anthropic deploy 2 gigawatts of AMD graphics processing units in its Helios rack-scale solutions. Though rival Nvidia commands much of the market for GPUs, AMD has nabbed a number of deals with big-name AI players, including OpenAI. Anthropic, meanwhile, has been inking agreements to expand its computing capacity — including a $1.25-billion-a-month tie-up with Elon Musk's SpaceX. The startup is expected to go public within months.
