The A16 Bionic has as Neural Engine capable of 17 TOPS but 6GB of RAM.
The M1 had a Neural Engine capable of just 11 TOPS but all M1 chips have at least 8GB of RAM.
So the model could run on an A16 Bionic if it had 8GB of RAM as it has 54% more TOPS than the M1, but it only has 6GB of RAM. Apple have clearly decided that a model small enough to fit just wouldn’t give good enough results.
Maybe as research progresses they’ll find a way to make it work with a model with fewer parameters but I’m not going to hold my breath.
Yeah I thought it was a NPU tops issue that’s keeping it off the 17 non pro. However since it runs on a M1 I think it’s more to do with needing 8GB RAM to fit the model.
He called the software integration between the two companies “an unacceptable security violation,” and said Apple has “no clue what’s actually going on.”
I’d be very surprised if corporates wouldn’t just be able to disable it in MDM for their worker’s phones. Not sure it’s Apple who has ‘no clue’ here.
If they keep burning $100k/w on their Vercel bill they might not be around that long anyway!

Awesome!
Was expecting this to be Xbox/PC exclusive but looks like it’s getting a PS5 release too.
The thing with serverless is you’re paying for iowait. In a regular server, like an EC2 or Fargate instance, when one thread is waiting for a reply from a disk or network operation the server can do something else. With serverless you only have one thread so you’re paying for this time even though it’s not actually using any CPU.
While you’re paying for that time you can bet that CPU thread is busy servicing some other customer and also charging them.
I like serverless for it’s general reliability, it’s one less thing to worry about, and it is cheap when you start out thanks to generous free tiers, at scale it’s a more complex answer as whether it is good value or not.

Sorry for the Facebook link!
It is a party of grievance and a campaign of grievance…. It’s exhausting, it’s unattractive, it makes us feel bad."
My only hope for the election is that folks are finally tired of grievance politics.
What does ‘unaffordable with fiat currencies’ even mean? This guy knows you can divide BTC right?
