iPad Pro with M4 chip boasts impressive performance jump compared to just-released M3 MacBook Air
The M4 is looking like a very strong generation for Apple Silicon. According to leaked Geekbench scores likely posted by...
On raw performance might, the M4 really does live up to Apple’s promises, should deliver. Single core is up about 20% compared to all M3 chips and more than 40% compared to M2. The generational computational leap from the previous M2 iPad Pro is at least a 42% jump on single-core and multi-core.

I can only think of one thing you could do with this much power ...... run an LLM
I’m so annoyed they announced this.
I have a slew of raspberry pi’s kicking around, doing various things. I also have a name brand NAS that reportedly lets you run other software, including containerized apps, but their implementation is whack and doesn’t work super well.
I want to get a more powerful machine for use as a replacement server. I’d like to spin up my own LLM tools, use it to with software like photoprism to auto tag my pictures, or even spin up Frigate on it.My leading contender had been either a Jetson Orin nano or a system with the core ultra 155h chip. But now I might have to wait until they announce/release M4 Mac minis - which is really annoying because I want instant gratification for my half-baked ideas.
Now you have the time to actually write up a design document and let your half-baked idea become a fully cooked one before you drop a bunch of cash on it
What are you, some kind of financial advisor!?
…. because if you are, are you taking new clients? My shit is whack.For legal reasons I am required to inform you that I am not a financial advisor. In fact, I am not real.
Are you an LLM running on an M4?
We’ll find out the future of iPadOS in one month! They have raised the price on the pro models, hopefully they have a big ass update readied up or alll the reviewers are gonna say the same thing “great hardware let down by shit software”
They have been saying the same conclusion since the very first iPad, hasn’t deterred Apple yet.
Making the prior iPad "obsolete" Apple nailed it 🤪
