I agree with everything you said, for what it’s worth. I just feel that it is particularly greedy to save tiny amounts of money on reduced RAM or charge insane amounts for RAM upgrades well in excess of the cost to Apple. I know they can do it because there isn’t any equivalent from other manufacturers. But maybe the part that bothers me about their claim about 8GB is the timing of it. They’re going to have to increase baseline amounts to be able to support AI features in the future - but until those models come out, they have to essentially stretch the truth about how much RAM is “good enough” to sell what they’ve already brought to market, and that part feels deceptive. They aren’t leading with admitting that these devices are woefully inadequate for on device inference.
