Apple’s attempts to catch up with the rest of the market in the generative AI field could cost more than first thought, with it potentially spending more than $5 billion over two years just on servers.
On Sunday, it was reported Apple has committed to spending in the region of a billion dollars annually just on its AI efforts. In a Monday post, TF Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo proposes the amount could be much higher than that.
Writing on Medium, a survey by Kuo reveals Apple intends to purchase between 2,000 and 3,000 AI servers in 2023, and possibly between 18,000 and 20,000 servers in 2024.
