Apple is just being stupid, handicapping their own hardware so they can sell the fixed one next year or the year after
This is time tested Apple strategy is now undermining their AI strategy and potential competitiveness
tl;dr they could have done 1600GB/s

- Nevermark 1y agoSo their products are so much better, in customer demand terms that they don’t need to rush tech out the door? Whatever story you want to create, if customers are happy year after year then Apple is serving them well. Maybe not with same feature dimension balance you want, or other artificial/wishful balances you might make up for them. (When Apple drops the ball it is usually painful, painfully obvious and most often a result of a deliberate and transparent priority tradeoff. No secret switcherooos or sneaky downgrading. See: Mac Pro for years…)
- yieldcrv 1y agoApple is absolutely fumbling on their AI strategy despite their vertical hardware integration, there is no strategy. Its a known problem inside Apple, not a 4-D chess thing to wow everyone with a refined version in 2030
