Anthropic closes $2.5B credit facility, CNBC reports
Earlier this week, Anthropic received a $2.5B, five-year revolving credit line to amp up its liquidity in an ever-expanding – and expensive – competition in the artificial intelligence industry, CNBC's Hayden Field reports. Anthropic, founded by former OpenAI research executives, launched its Claude chatbot in March 2023.
