Your device will be 11% faster and the battery will last 6% more but it will dramatically change the way you interact with your device.
And cost 4000% more.
If it’s enough to run on-device ai, it’s a win. Imagine autocorrect being able to mangle your texting without ever connecting to the cloud. Huge prvacy win.
With the goggles coming soon, I think they’ll focus chip improvements on GPU and neural engine to better support that
I've read that analog chips will takeover AI computations
