Apple's tumultuous relationship with Nvidia: A history of conflict and the rise of in-house AI chips
Apple is reportedly working on its own AI chip in an effort to reduce its reliance on third-party developers like Nvidia. The two companies have had a long and tumultuous relationship, dating back to the early 2000s when Apple used Nvidia's chips to improve graphics performance in Macs. Tensions between the companies grew over the years, with disagreements over technology and patents. Nvidia currently controls between 70% and 95% of the AI chip market share.
