Cook Goes All In! 2nm, Tao's Law, and the Most Powerful AI Computer

Before retirement, Cook is going all out! Apple has launched the first 2nm chip, the M6, alongside the most powerful M-series chip ever, the M5 Ultra — the former delivers a 4x boost in AI performance, with the Mac mini quietly pivoting toward a "desktop agent server"; the latter stacks four dies, features 512GB of unified memory, and 1.2TB/s bandwidth, effectively turning a desktop into an AI data center. Prices have surged alongside the compute power, and the 512GB Mac Studio is already backordered until late October.
