Apple has allegedly approached Foxconn and Lenovo to build AI servers based on Apple Silicon

To take advantage of Foxconn's knowledge of Nvidia-based machines.

However, Foxconn, Apple's primary manufacturing partner, also happens to be the world's largest maker of AI servers, primarily making machines based on Nvidia's GPUs, such as the H100 and H200. "One of the reasons Apple wants Foxconn to make servers in Taiwan is its hope to tap into the engineering talent and R&D resources that work on Nvidia projects," a source with knowledge of the matter told Nikkei. Foxconn operates AI labs in Hsinchu, Taiwan, and San Jose, California, where it works closely with Nvidia to develop the next generation of servers, dubbed the GB300, the report says.
