Nvidia weighs playing the cosigner for Nscale’s AI data center in West Virginia
Published
When investors get nervous about AI spending, it helps to have the chipmaker that sells the chips offer to cosign the loan.
Nvidia’s earlier support for cloud providers has mostly covered leases and chip purchases, not construction.
The proposed guarantee would deepen Nvidia’s financial ties to Nscale while helping secure a major customer for its chips. Anthropic, one of the largest buyers of AI computing power, has spread its infrastructure spending across multiple chipmakers. One investor told The Information that Anthropic’s involvement likely explains Nvidia’s interest in keeping Nscale’s project on track.
