Microsoft is discussing a plan to supply its in-house artificial intelligence chip to Anthropic, potentially marking its first external customer for the Maia line. CNBC reported the companies are negotiating Anthropic’s use of the customised chip. A person familiar with the matter said no final agreement has been reached.
