Anthropic Nears $6B Acquisition of Decart; CoreWeave and Cerebras Updates
Anthropic eyes $6B Decart buy to boost AI compute. CoreWeave warns of costly chip shifts; Cerebras shares slide after weak Q2 results.

What stands out
Bloomberg's scoop that Anthropic is eyeing Decart for around $6 billion makes a simple point obvious: the AI boom is now as much about squeezing more performance from existing compute as it is about new models. CoreWeave warning that moving off exclusive NVIDIA CORP (NVDA) chips costs time and money, plus Cerebras' disappointing quarter, frames the choice companies face between vendor lock-in and painful migration. That tension is exactly why Nvidia matters to both M&A flows and infrastructure spending, and why chatter about rivals like Alphabet trying to catch up is finally relevant.
