Maybe nobody (corporation/gov) is paying for that right now, but if all of those things become cheap enough to make sense to do (cost of transmission/ storage/processing are low enough to turn a profit or get the data you want) then someone (corporation/gov) will do it.

Maybe they are making that comparison for the people they want to upgrade to the new macs and not for people that just got their M1 MacBooks.. making m1 to m2 comparison for intel mac users would not make much sense in that case.

Doesn’t seem like they are suggesting that apple can do no wrong. Just pointing out that this is similar to other major Apple announcements. I found their contribution interesting, I’m not sure why you feel the need to be hostile about it.

I think that depends on how you use the tool. For example asking for answers vs asking probing questions while working something out. So it’s probably up to you as an individual. If you’re missing out on “all this” you might just be asking for answers.

> If a piece of art is made by a computer based on detailed instructions, that art was made by a computer, not a person.

Tell that to music producers and digital artists. They don’t know what detailed instructions are run by the cpu of the device they use, and yet it is still art and they are still artists.

> I'm not sure what you're smoking

There’s really no need to make it personal.

Also, 2TB for 160 in 2023 doesn’t sound like a great deal.

> Some companies can’t afford to use TSMC’s latest and greatest silicon because big companies have soaked up all the capacity.

Apple is single handedly bankrolling the latest and greatest from TSMC. If it wasn’t for them, the latest and greatest would likely be even more expensive/out of reach for “some companies”.

Idk, I’ve seen some peoples fyp that are primarily text with maybe some background music. So I could see this artifact thing working for those people, and maybe catching on enough to work for others as well
