Wait, let me read that again. Oh, so you're saying that Apple wants to unify their ISA... by switching their already ARM smaller/hidden cores to RISC-V?
Yeah, it does not make sense to me, either.
- afiori 4y agoNo I am saying that even if RISC-V was strictly better than ARM Apple would have likely still chosen ARM for the M1 generation as it would be the simplest way to unify their ISAs across their devices.
