Apple (AAPL, Financial) has announced plans to establish a new artificial intelligence server factory in Texas, contributing to its $500 billion investment in the United States. The facility is expected to be operational by 2026. The tech giant revealed its intention to collaborate with partners in Houston to build a 250,000 square-foot manufacturing plant. This factory will produce servers designed for Apple Intelligence, the AI personal assistant used in iPhones, iPads, and Mac computers.

Last week, Apple's CEO, Tim Cook, met with U.S. President Donald Trump, discussing various strategic initiatives. Besides the new factory, Apple also aims to hire approximately 20,000 new employees across the United States. This expansion underscores Apple's commitment to domestic manufacturing and job creation.
