Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has approached its biggest iPhone supplier Foxconn (OTCPK:FXCOF) about building artificial intelligence servers in Taiwan for its internal use, Nikkei Asia reported, citing sources.
The size of the order, which is aimed at helping Apple (AAPL) ramp up its computing capability, would likely be relatively small.
But sources said Foxconn's (OTCPK:FXCOF) capacity to take on Apple (AAPL) as a server customer may be limited, as the Taiwanese firm is also the leading manufacturer of Nvidia's (NVDA) AI servers.
For now, Apple (AAPL) and Foxconn (OTCPK:FXCOF) - also known as Hon Hai Precision (OTCPK:HNHAF) - haven't finalized a deal yet.
Apple (AAPL) has also approached Chinese firm Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGY) (OTCPK:LNVGF) to help in designing some of the AI servers.
