Unclear what devices this will be in outside of the mac studio. Also most of the comparisons were with M1 and M2 chips, not M4.

- reaperducer 2y agomost of the comparisons were with M1 and M2 chips, not M4. Is anyone other than a vanishingly small number of hard core hobbiests going to upgrade from an M4 to an M4 Ultra?

I expect that the 2 biggest buyers of M4 Ultra will be people who want to run LLMs locally, and people who want the highest performance machine they can get (professionals), but are wedded to mac-only software.
- bredren 2y agoAnecdotal, and reasonable criticisms of the release aside, OpenAI's gpt-4.5 introduction video was done from a hard-to-miss Apple laptop. It is reasonable to say many folks in the field prefer to work on mac hardware.
- _mlbt 2y agoIt is a bit misleading to do that, but in fairness to Apple, almost nobody is upgrading to this from an M4 Mac, so those are probably more useful comparisons.
