How Apple's decade-long bet on chips won over AI teams

Unified RAM, that's basically it. If Apple Silicon didn't have unified RAM then no one would be using it for AI, they'd instead use AMD Strix Halo or Nvidia DGX chips, both of which have some advantages over AS, like token prefill speeds and CUDA access.

Introducing Framework Laptop 13 Pro

Dont get hyped for marketing terms man, as I said in another post, apple is simply dynamically shared memory space, the others is static. Its not a huge difference especially since the increase in some cases. 4GB lost out of 128GB is not a make it or break it. Also, you could get really close to the

Analysis of the Apple M5 SoC: Apple silicon extends its lead over AMD, Intel and Qualcomm

LOL, the first paragraph says the M5 iGPU is well ahead of while the 3rd paragraph says "new M5 chip features one of the fastest current iGPUs (with the exception of Strix Halo), but it is no faster than the best versions of the Intel Arc Graphics 140V or the AMD Radeon 890M."

Can I Run Decent Models Locally if I Buy this??

No. In that price range, you'd be better served by a AMD Strix Halo machine with 128GB RAM. However, For OpenClaw specifically I believe the creator says it was made with MacOS in mind. So a Mac Studio may be better even though you'll pay double.

So there just won't be any Laptop gpus?

Unlikely. For laptops, mini PCs and Consoles, AMD is focusing on their APU's. Besides, have you seen the reviews of the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 with the Raden 8060S? It's quite capable.

Intel Panther Lake Arc B390 performance and efficiency analysis: Intel's new iGPU trades blows with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050

TLDR:"The performance advantage over the previous Arc Graphics 140T/140V iGPUs is around 70%. The advantage over the smaller Radeon 800 series iGPUs of AMD Zen 5 is also considerably high (between 50-80% depending on the benchmark). Although the Strix Halo GPUs are even faster (but not more efficien

Lokalna AI zanimacija

Da, uzeo sam si AMD Strix Halo miniPC sa 128 GB unified RAM (GMKTec EVO-X2), prilična je zvjerka i možeš alocirati do cca 100 GB RAMa za GPU. Napravio sam za probu web-baziranu igru u jedan dan crunchanja sa OpenCode i Qwen-3.6-35B-A3B. Dobro radi i dovoljno je brzo. Reda veličine 50 tokena/sec na p

Nvidia's N1X Apple Silicon rival is two years behind

But the article is specifically about being competitive against Apple. Yeah it’ll be better than AMDs Strix Halo in some ways but that’s besides the primary point.
