> Secret meeting between Apple and TSMC reported, /possibly/ to reserve all 2nm capacity
> Secret meeting /may/ have been about 2nm exclusivity
> The low-profile visit was made to secure TSMC’s advanced manufacturing capacity, /potentially/ 2nm process, booked for Apple’s in-house AI-chips, according to the report.
It's nothing new at all for Apple to buy up all the capacity and this isn't even an article on that actually happening. It's speculation on top of speculation. Also "secret meeting", ooooooo secret, give me a break... Show me the public meetings that other companies have with TSMC or hell the public meetings they have with any of their suppliers.
But what else do you expect from a shovel-blog?

- asadotzler 2y agoPlenty of companies have meetings with other companies where their executives arrive in front of cameras and parade the meeting's existence usually to alert investors, customers, or competitors. There are other meetings they don't advertise that they attempt to keep from others by not inviting press, releasing statements, and otherwise publicizing. Those are called "secret" meetings not because their content is secret, as that's true for most corporate to corporate meetings, but because their existence is secret. Not understanding something as simple as this suggests a feeble or naive mind.
