What changed

Nvidia is reportedly in talks to invest up to $10 billion in Anthropic’s planned stock-market debut. Anthropic is targeting a valuation of $2 trillion, which would make the offering the largest initial public offering in history, with much of the investment potentially returning to Nvidia through chip orders.

What this means for you

The deal is not confirmed, and the IPO is still planned rather than available to the public. If completed, it would show the scale of AI investment while strengthening Nvidia’s role as a major supplier to Anthropic.
