Anyone checked out the NPU on the new iPad? It’s supposed to be a bazillion times better according to Apple but I haven’t had a chance to dig into the reality.
I guess we can assume this is going to be what’s used in what’s being called Apple’s first AI phone, iPhone 16.
That 38 TOPS figure was a bit weird, it's literally below baseline(45 TOPS) for "AI PC" branding Qualcomm/Intel/Microsoft is launching this June, and also 10x less than typical GPUs. I think it was just a clever marketing exploiting the fact that "AI PC" branding hasn't launched yet.
For reference, Nvidia's Jetson Orin NX robotics platform is 35-50 TOPS on average. Apple is catching up, but Nvidia still has by-far the more flexible (and better scaled) platform.
