Revealing Apple’s Cutting-Edge Chips for Data Centers to Support AI Operations: Meet the M2 Ultra.

Prior reports indicated that Apple had an internal project named ACDC for designing chips to be used in data centers supporting AI processing. The newest information from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reveals that the chip in question is the M2 Ultra.

The approach to designing AI processing work at Apple will allow simple tasks to be performed at the device level, but more complex commands will be routed to servers and processed using the M2 Ultra. The current design of ACDC supports both security and user privacy, which Apple sees as a selling point.

Reports suggest that Apple will utilize the M2 Ultra chip in both its own data centers and in data centers of other service providers leased by Apple. The next upgrade plan includes the more powerful M4 chip model.
