Google artificial intelligence designed and released a new phone the Pixel 8 Pro that has a very slow Tensor processor that is five years behind Apple, and one year behind Samsung, the Pixel 8 Pro which is also equipped with extremely bad modem that is supposed to send information (video boost) back to Google headquarters to process and then send back to the Pixel 8 Pro smartphone, yep that’s AI at its finest, and Apple is supposedly behind? Hmm…. I think Apple is ahead in the usable software/hardware department with a product that you can actually use. Tim Cook and the boys/girls at Apple are just politely biding their time and grinning at their competition running around like a chickens without an AI head, kinda like this Apple guy was doing in 2007.

I'm with you. I don't think Apple has been resting on their laurels as AI development has grown over the last 70 years. To me this is like people bellyaching over any time Apple doesn't offer a "me first" or "me too" product when the media latches onto a new market frenzy, and despite Apple proving time and time again how to do business with fewer gaffes than successes, we still have people on this forum that will tell you that Apple should've released a Netbook.

Something similar is happening in the chip design world, because Apple has a large presence in the mobile area. Their chip design department is trying to design products with very high performance, but at the same time Apple has a design goal of keeping the wattage within a sane level. Apple’s path appears to be different than Intel, Nvidia, and AMD, who don’t seem to share that goal particularly Nvidia, Apple has added ray tracing cores, to the A17 SOC, Which means the M3 will also get ray tracing cores also, but Apples approach seems to be more measured. I don’t think they’re aiming for 450W or 650W desktop systems.

                                                                                    path, a path that they briefly were on with IBM which didn’t work out too well?
