According to Apple, the neural engine can perform 5 trillion operations per second—an eight-fold boost—and consumes one-tenth the energy of its previous incarnation Sidenote, but the claim by Apple seemed to be that those apps that use CoreML will see such an efficiency boost in their ML tasks, as CoreML did not use the neural circuitry on the A11 Bionic, and it was restricted to system tasks. Not sure if the opening of the A12's neural processing means that CoreML will be altered to also use the A11's functionality.
