Anthropic PBC is in talks to buy the artificial intelligence startup Decart AI for about $6 billion, according to people familiar with the matter, in what would be the Claude maker’s largest known acquisition.
Decart makes software that can reduce the cost of training and operating AI by helping chips work more efficiently. The potential acquisition is intended to help Anthropic’s existing computing infrastructure absorb more demand, according to a person familiar with the matter, at a time when it’s seeing surging adoption of its software.
