Also, you don't realize until you try them out that other issues make running models on the AMD chip ridiculously slow compared to running the same models on an M4. Some of that's software. But a lot is how the chip/memory/neural etc are organized.

Right now, AMD is not even in the ballpark.

In fact, the real kick in the 'nads was my fully kitted M4 laptop outperforming the AMD. I just gave up.

I'll keep checking in with AMD and Intel every generation though. It's gotta change at some point.
