A brief report from Nikkei Asia discussing Apple’s server construction plan for utilizing Apple Intelligence indicates that Apple has appointed Foxconn as the server manufacturer.
Apple’s approach to processing Apple Intelligence emphasizes device-level processing to maximize user privacy. However, if cloud resources are required for processing, data will be sent to a Private Cloud with data management processes to maintain privacy. The server mentioned in this news report has been reported to utilize the M2 Ultra chip as the main processing power, but Apple may upgrade it to the latest M4 chip.
Nevertheless, Nikkei’s report suggests that the demand for servers may not be immediate due to Foxconn’s current full-scale production of servers for another customer named NVIDIA.
