Boy, oh boy Apple is the new shovel seller during AI gold rush.

Most people at Apple have already realized that their processors are already too powerful for regular users - heck, as a developer my M2 Pro with 32 GB RAM is more than enough for me.

Regular users don’t care about local AI either. So, they will probably extract as much money as possible during AI gold rush, but then we will most likely see Apple

a. Making their software worse (god forbid, forced updates)

b. Making their hardware impossible to repair (as they almost accomplished this already) and easier to break.
