2023年,包括Tim Cook在内的美国技术领导人被警告说,到2027年,中国可能会对台湾采取军事行动,威胁全球芯片供应,并促使美国对替代制造业进行重大投资。 U.S. tech leaders, including Tim Cook, were warned in 2023 of a possible Chinese military move against Taiwan by 2027, threatening global chip supplies and prompting major U.S. investments in alternative manufacturing.

美国情报官员于2023年向苹果公司首席执行官蒂姆·库克和其他顶级技术领导人介绍了中国到2027年在台湾可能采取军事行动的情况,并列举了全球半导体供应链面临的风险。 In 2023, Apple CEO Tim Cook and other top tech leaders were briefed by U.S. intelligence officials about a potential Chinese military move on Taiwan by 2027, citing risks to global semiconductor supply chains. 台湾生产了全世界90%最先进的芯片,对苹果、Nvidia和AMD来说至关重要,而冲突可能会引发超过10万亿美元的经济损失。 Taiwan produces about 90% of the world’s most advanced chips, critical to Apple, Nvidia, and AMD, and a conflict could trigger economic losses exceeding $10 trillion. 这一警告促使苹果公司加快生产多样化计划,包括扩大印度和越南的制造业,并承诺1 000亿美元用于美国芯片开发。 The warning prompted Apple to accelerate plans to diversify production, including expanding manufacturing in India and Vietnam and committing $100 billion to U.S. chip development. 尽管取得了进展,但先进的芯片生产仍然主要依赖台湾,美国的设施在能力和成本效益方面仍然落后。 Despite progress, advanced chip production still largely depends on Taiwan, and U.S. facilities remain behind in capability and cost efficiency.
