Apple is expected to move closer to building its own artificial intelligence infrastructure. Well known analyst Ming Chi Kuo has said that the company could start mass production of its self developed AI server chips in the second half of this year. He also suggested that Apple may set up and begin running its own data centres by next year.
In a post on X, Kuo wrote, “Apple’s self developed AI server chip is expected to enter mass production in the second half of the year.” These chips are designed for data centres and are used to train and run large AI models. They are built to handle complex calculations at scale, making them more efficient than standard processors.
If this plan moves forward, it would show that Apple is investing heavily in AI infrastructure. The company has already introduced AI focused chipsets for its devices and launched Private Cloud Compute for secure server based processing. With in house server chips and data centres, Apple could control more of the AI development and deployment process.
The timing of this report is notable. Apple recently announced a partnership with Google to use a customised Gemini model for Siri and some Apple Intelligence features. It already has a deal with OpenAI and its own foundation models, placing it in a strong position on the technology side.
However, Apple AI features have not yet made a strong impact on users. If the company is working on major upgrades, more details could be shared at its annual developer event in June.
