A Manifold prediction market shows a 77.34% probability that Apple will release a dedicated AI chip for iPhones in 2026. Source: Manifold. This would mark a significant move into edge AI hardware, likely manufactured by TSMC on advanced 3nm or 2nm nodes. The chip could enhance on-device AI inference for Siri, photography, and augmented reality, challenging Qualcomm's neural processing units. Low confidence due to single speculative source.
AAPL has not made a large direction-matching 30-90 day move yet.
