Intel taps Apple for potential investment, says report — companies said to be discussing ways to work together more closely

Intel is reportedly in early talks with Apple about a potential investment and closer collaboration. Recent deals with Nvidia, SoftBank, and U.S. government funding are part of Intel's strategy to revitalize the company. Apple previously used Intel CPUs in Macs but switched to Arm-based processors in 2020. The potential collaboration between Apple and Intel could signal confidence in Intel's future direction. If successful, a deal with Apple could further boost Intel's image and position in the tech industry.
