Reuters news agency reported that Arm has begun the process of selling its own chips to customers, starting by hiring employees from its own clients. Arm is a company that primarily earns revenue from selling designs and royalties of chip architecture. Customers pay this fee to develop chips, such as Apple or NVIDIA, and there have been speculations that Arm may consider making its own chips in the future.
The report indicates that Arm is particularly interested in the server CPU market, aiming towards Qualcomm, which produces CPUs for Meta. It is mentioned that Arm has started negotiations with Meta. However, this move by Arm could have various implications as the company has historically been known for promoting collaboration but is now transitioning to becoming a competitor with other chip manufacturers.
Representatives from Arm, Qualcomm, and Meta have declined to comment on this report.
TLDR: Arm is reportedly exploring selling its own chips, potentially entering the competitive chip manufacturing market.
