President Donald Trump said Thursday that Apple has agreed to work with Intel on designing and producing chips in the U.S.
"When I won my Second Term, it was clear America needed its Semiconductor Industry to come back to the U.S.A. We design everything, but we need to BUILD it here, NOW! So I decided to help Intel because we need to design and build our Chips right here in America," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
The partnership could help Apple diversify its manufacturing base as it looks for additional chip capacity. The tech giant relies heavily on the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, which has advanced production lines in high demand from AI chipmakers such as Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices.
