摘要
台积电计划向Anthropic和OpenAI各投资5亿美元，合计10亿美元，从而直接持有这两家领先AI开发商的股份。据路透社报道，台积电董事会已批准相关计划，其中对OpenAI的投资为预留給大型投资者的优先股，对Anthropic则按后者预期IPO价格购买普通股。《华尔街日报》称，此举可能在AI交易显现压力之际为市场注入信心。但分析人士也警告，投资者、供应商
Top chip manufacturer TSMC is ready to invest $1 billion in Anthropic and OpenAI. That would give the Taiwanese chipmaker direct stakes in leading AI developers, even as its own contract chipmaking business has profited enormously from the AI data center buildout.
The chipmaker’s board approved plans to invest up to $500 million in OpenAI preferred stock reserved for large investors and another $500 million to purchase Anthropic common shares at the latter’s expected IPO price, according to Reuters. Such an investment may give markets “a shot of confidence as the artificial-intelligence trade shows signs of strain,” The Wall Street Journal reported.
But analysts also warned that such circular financing among investors, suppliers, and customers has made it difficult to evaluate real market demand for AI-related hardware and services, according to the Journal.
