512gb of unified memory is insane. The price will be outrageous but for AI enthusiasts it will probably be worth it.

Well this news means there will be cheaper second hand m1 and m2 machines on the market.

my college buddy and startup cofounder had a pathetically slow old laptop. he asks me the other day, "should i buy an ipad pro?" i was dumbfounded. bro you don’t even have a proper computer. we went around a bunch and he kept trying to get really bad ones like a base model mac mini. finally i persuaded him to get a 16" M1 Pro for a grand (about 700 after his trade in) and he couldn't be happier.

I'm still using my M1 MBP like 4 years later. Don’t even care to upgrade! these things are great value

M2 user here. It is wonderful. You cannot get it to even heat up.
